I have already tried out Linux Mint. But I want to try out other distros.

PC specs:

  • Intel Core i5-10400

  • 16 GB of RAM DDR4

  • 1 TB NVME SSD

  • 256 GB SATA SSD

  • Intel UHD 630

There are some really mixed answers here. I would stick to the mainline distros and not go for a fork with a few customizations. It does depend on what you want, especially if you are willing to learn using the terminal and if you want bleeding edge or more stability. My list would be:

  • Debian
  • Kubuntu
  • Fedora
  • Pop!_OS
  • Arch Linux (If you want to learn Linux from its fundamentals)

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.
