What Linux distribution or distributions do you personally use?
I myself am a daily Void user. I used to use Devuan, but wanted to try rolling release and ended up loving Void!

Haha yes, I have to stay out of arguments involving Snap vs Flatpak for this reason. I ended up leaving Mint through issues with my HTPC install - with Plex, the ‘Home Theater’ app died it’s death, and options were tough to install - so I went for Arch, failed to get that working well, then tested KDE with Manjaro - bingo!
Until a couple of months ago, I was installing PlexHTPC via AUR which unpacked the snap and installed it - that’s so awesome… though now it’s dead so I had to jump onto the newly opened Flatpak option (AUR stuck at 1.30.1-1 whilst Flathub is up to 1.39.2).
After the PPA nightmares I had with 'buntu, and later with Mint (PPA’s made for 'buntu often don’t work) it’s like a dream.
I haven’t experienced an issue adding PPA’s in about four years. The package manager simply does what it’s meant to do and things just work.
When I used Mint, more often than not the PPA’s wouldn’t even add because they had issues with the ‘ubuntu’ version Mint was based on.
That’s because Mint isn’t really an LTS release and many repo’s only support LTS releases. With respect, out of all the distro’s I’ve ever used, Mint was the one that gave me the most problems.
