From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Out of curiosity, which one did you stick with?
Mint with Cinnamon on the desktop because it's not flashy or unique in any way. I have actual work to get done and I just need the OS to get out of my way. I'll customize my shell environment but only for productivity.. I'm not spending hours tweaking my DE theme or color palette or whatever.
Server side, where I spend the overwhelming majority of my time, the base OS doesn't really matter. I am entirely in kubernetes so that's mostly all abstracted away.
