Which 3 Linux distros would YOU pick to usher Linux into the new era that could convince normies to move to Linux as their next desktop and devs to their next server as a replacement to Apple and Windows? And why?

Ubuntu did a lot in unifying the Linux contributors and community into one single stable desktop/server distro by providing a great out of the box experience for regular desktop users and power users with their server distro. Does Ubuntu still carry the torch for the best user experience for normies coming from Apple and Microsoft OS? What 3 Linux distros are doing the most to unify Linux and move Linux forward for regular consumers?

Mint
Fedora
OpenSUSE

chrome os already infiltrated the market for computers too fucking slow for winbloat.

you cant option linux, and at that. its ubuntu, on a dell computer for less than $750

the market for linux is continuing to hit winbloat where it hurts and take new systems sales away from microsoft entirely

you know how some spergs refuse to touch Fedora cause of the name?
well, there are some distros i want to use purely because of how retarded their names sound. like MEPIS :DD and PUIAS :DDD

>>100141570
you either never used Gentoo or you use it and want to pretend that makes you a power user
