Debian, stable on servers, unstable on workstations and laptops. Using the cloud variant on containers running on Raspberry Pi 4s running Proxmox (well, 'Pimox' but that is just Proxmox tailored to the RPi) since the default version fails to boot. Using Mate where desktop environments are 'needed' for those not used to 'Linux', Xmonad otherwise. Having used Linux from 1993 (SLS -> Slackware -> Redhat -> Debian -> Ubuntu -> Mint -> Debian) I have come to appreciate the longevity of a Debian installation, especially the way in-place upgrades tend to work mostly reliably. Debian stable may be somewhat stodgy but for those occasions where newer versions of packages are required there is always the possibility of pulling in some from unstable or testing. Even though this is 'officially' discouraged I have yet to encounter stability problems with such installations.
