I need to write one up. I tried a few for at least a couple of months at a time just to really commit to getting to know them. Fedora, Ubuntu, Mint, Korora (Mint for Fedora) and a couple of others. Mint was great. I ran it for about a year but then switched to Ubuntu after the 18.04 release that switched to Gnome 3. Ubuntu being the dominant installation tends to lead to better support from vendors, etc in my experience. YMMV. I honestly don’t think you can go wrong with either. The biggest thing is going to be committing to push through any little quirks that might come up. For example, I thought multi screen support didn’t work when I tried to use my apple DVI adapter. Turns out that apple uses a “passive” adapter that depends on software installed on the Mac to actually work. If you get an “active” adapter...everything works fine. I also wasn’t thrilled with the Magic Mouse experience, so I ended up getting a different mouse that’s performed wonderfully. Now that I’m far enough down the road I’ve started managing my configuration with Ansible so I have an easy way to just rebuild my install if I try something new. A lot of people do that too, it’s a good time.
