As a Gnome purist, I like Fedora. It's curated almost as strongly as elementary and Solus, just with a different set of software. Ubuntu is always a reasonable choice; I'd recommend it if you don't mind a slightly clunkier user experience, especially around installing software. Compared to Fedora, it comes with a larger range of worse-curated software packages, aimed much more at dabblers rather than end-users. The breadth of documentation for Ubuntu is as much a curse, because it's now mostly obsolete. (I've never actually used Arch Linux; it just has a very strong reputation of helpful guidance, but DIY and no babysitting.)
