I don't know much about it lately, but aren't Fedora and Ubuntu considered bad nowadays? Mint imo was absolutely great every time I used it except for proprietary drivers needing extra reboots(might be different now)

I think Ubuntu has turned to garbage with whatever canonical is doing but I do think Linux Mint is pretty great

I'm having a ton of fun with Mint. I'm finding it tight, full of relevant software, and quite configurable.

I have no control over my Ubuntu's updates just like with windows. I'd have to ditch snap if i understand properly, which would effectively deUbuntu my Ubuntu. They have a fairly heavily proprietary focus which is also bad.

AFAIK, Fedora is considered stable and is a great choice.

Fedora just works, it made me stop Distro hopping. I don't want to use something else, but when the day comes on that Red Hat starts making questionable choices, I'll go back to Debian.

I've been a user for years and I would agree with that. The only issue I've seen people have recently are with Red Hat and their recent source code policy change

I don't really know if they're bad, since I haven't touched either in years, but they're both definitely easy distros to get into for beginners who dont want to spend hours configuring their system, thus them being in the yes part of having a life.
