Try Fedora Cinnamon.
You keep picking lone distros that have tiny communities. If you use something Nice, it might actually be nice.
Feeling like you are judging Linux Desktop from some obscure view.

A Linux so small that I understand what everything’s doing is about the only kind I can tolerate. It’s too messy and janky for the hands-off “just works”. Always was, really, I just didn’t recognize how much time I was losing to it until I experienced not having that time-suck then tried to go back—death by a million cuts.
Last time I tried KDE in Fedora, I could make multiple apps crash just by attempting drag & drop onto them. JFC. A program crashes, like, maybe once a year in the world I’m used to. I’m not sure the average has even been that high.
That's not normal, common or at all representative of the distro or Linux on desktop in general.
I will note that I didn’t realize how much I’d gotten used to working around or working past problems without even noticing I was doing it, until I was no longer using graphical Linux regularly. I am 100% sure I’d have delivered a huge underestimate of the crap I was putting up with, had someone asked me before I switched. Only when trying to go back was it clear what I’d been doing.
You seem a but unreliable too, like you have an axe to grind.
No one else is running into these issues unless they are on debian-family.
