I really, really liked Gentoo until it became impossible for me to update because of package conflicts.

So I'd have to say Debian is my current favorite

Also MATE is objectively the best DE for programming and schoolwork.

I had to install Gentoo before for a job interview. It was rough considering I don't mess with Linux too much outside of the occasional Ubuntu and Knoppix stuff. I liked the idea though and plan to install Arch Linux to get a better feel for the Linux CLI.

Most of what I learned about the CLI was on Debian.

Red Hat is the best distro to learn if you want a fat paycheck btw.

I'm only familiar with Ubuntu

I used Fedora just to access the homework system at my school but that was it. I'm gonna eventually start using Kali to get into penetration testing and hopefully get certified within the next 3 years

Yes, it's really popular still, but it's insecure I'm pretty sure.

DSL is fun.

I look forward to Ubuntu phones being a thing too. They suck ass right now, but eventually they'll be on point I'm sure.

Of course. Granted many places use CentOS since it's practically the same without the hefty price. The "support" that comes with Red Hat means nothing if you have a good Linux sys admin team.

My job interview wasn't really to test my Linux skills anyway. It was more a test of my research and discovery skills. Presenting me with a project that I had no knowledge of to see if I had the intuitive to figure it out. My job deals with the underlying data center hardware....not the Linux VMs that sit on it.
