Linux hobbyist for 20+ years, pro for 6+. Fedora for workstations, proxmox for hypervisors, and rocky for servers is my usual personal recommendation. Beyond that, secureblue (a hardened downstream of fedora atomic) with heads firmware is a fantastic daily driver if you’re into that kind of thing.
Started with debian sarge way back in the day, currently using secureblue and qubes with fedora vms for most work, with a debian htpc on the side. For servers, I’m mostly debian-based on hardware (a bunch of proxmox machines at various sites and debian-based raspberry pis everywhere), with mostly redhat-based vms. Some alpine and freebsd baremetal and virtual machines sprinkled in here and there for flavor where they fit right.
Qubes as a daily can be pretty cumbersome with a steep learning curve, but once you get the hang of it it’s a very unique modular kind of experience, and a pretty good way to safely(ish) use one machine for many things - certainly much more so than any of the main linux distros. If you’re interested in security, worth checking out!
