CachyOS user here. It was the only distro+KDE that worked with my GeForce flawlessly.
Non-corporate users use Ubuntu? Last time I tried it, I have encountered bugs on day one, and I nearly instantly switched to random distro with KDE (openSUSE, which also I dislike btw).
Also I have very 'fond' memories of using it in about 2011-2013 where the program crashing message is burnt into my mind, because how often it appeared, and sometimes even the error reporting tool was crashing for some reason.

Haven't done much in the desktop space, but Ubuntu seems solid for noobs. Tons of tutorials out there to get a new person on their feet. Go Ubuntu, learn, change it up later. Not like this is a life defining moment. Go with what works out the box and has idiot-proof help out there.
My go-to for servers is headless Debian. Am I wrong? Serious question.
I use gentoo out of elitism and I want the Linux to be taken over by corps so I can move to a real is called freebsd
