I've been hopping between different Linux distributions recently and I'm not sure what to try next. So far, I've experimented with Linux Mint, Pop!_OS (which I didn't like), then tried Fedora with both Gnome and KDE. I even gave Arch a shot but went back to Fedora. I've also tried Nobara and Cachy OS. I'm looking for suggestions on what might be a good distro to try next that fits what I'm used to or is worth exploring.

What are you specifically looking for? If you want to dive into security, Red Hat could be a solid choice. For something super customizable, you might enjoy Gentoo or Slackware. But it really depends on your workflow and what you need.
How about giving Slackware or Void a shot? They're quite different and can be fun! Enjoy the journey!
No thanks, I think I'll pass.
Honestly, just go with whatever you feel like. If you're distro hopping, it really is kind of a toss-up. I've stuck with the same distro for over 20 years but I still play around with others on different machines. Just have fun with it!
I just wanna try something but I'm not sure what...
Consider trying an independent distro like OpenSUSE Tumbleweed or Solus. They’ve got strong communities and are quite customizable!
What about Omarchy?
You might want to clarify what you do on your PC to get better suggestions. What’s your usage like?
Mainly gaming, Spotify, and a bit of video editing.
I just want a distro that works and doesn’t break with updates, plus customizable and community-supported.
