Favourite Linux distro

Hi Linux users! Comment down Linux distribution that you like the most.
My favourite distro is Kali, because I do lot of penetration testin stuff. Kali has lot of excellent hacking software preinstalled. But it's not good distro for daily usage and normal programming stuff. For that, I like Linux Mint. It is easy to use and lightweight and powerful. So write your favourite distribution below!

I use Ubuntu daily, and also for servers for the most part. I've got a couple of CentOS servers and Debian ones lying round.

I use Ubuntu because it's easy to get on with. Debian can be an interesting game to get things installed if there's funny dependencies, but Ubuntu seems to have resolved that. I also find using the desktop and server versions mean I don't have to remember two sets of commands (apt vs yum vs whatever) or locations to update things (like whether Apache is /etc/apache2 or /etc/httpd)

My main distro is still Solus. I enjoy a lot Void, some love and hate with NixOS, Guix is appealing also because of Guile.

Well, no, there is No any specific reason. I just like Kali, it is better known, has better tutorials. Why do you use Parrot over Kali?
