I've been more and more disheartened with Ubuntu, but don't want to go away from the `.deb` ecosystem, as it's pretty good for work, dockerfiles, etc.
What are you guys using these days? Is Linux Mint any good?

Recently picked up a Dell XPS15 with a new i7 and nVidia 3050 and the latest release worked with everything out of the box.
I would prefer rolling release to avoid the situation I'm in with LTS, but otherwise I'm a very happy Mint user and financial contributor.
I switched from Ubuntu too and it was surprising how polished ZorinOS was. Everything was super stable and in the last 2 years, it didn't break by itself, which I can't say the same for Ubuntu sadly.
Linux Mint too is cool but the outdated UI is the only deal breaker for me.

But I'm pretty happy with OpenSuse for desktop use and MicroOS for my servers. tough if I'm honest, I don't know what are their main advantages over other systems.
The difference between .deb and other common packages (rpm, pacman) are minimal. Almost all desktop distros will handle dockerfiles just as well as Ubuntu.
I want to run away from `snap` tho.
