I've never run Mint or Debian on my home desktop but those seem like the obvious options.
I'm not installing Gentoo or Arch because my choice of distro is not based on insecurity about my peepee size and I'm looking for everyday ease of use and a large support base.
edit: currently installing mint debian edition pray for me brothers
edit2: mint debian thus far seems better/less buggy than ubuntu without major downsides

I have been using mint for a couple years
Straightforward, works out of box, doesn't have problems that other linux also doesn't have
Debian is better if you want more customization without going full archtism

Yeah I'm leaning Mint.
LMDE maybe? Seems like it would be more secure to cut canonical out entirely. Also I am mad as frick about getting this shitty fricking ubuntu pro garbage on my god darn computer.
