Fucking Linux tho

I started using Linux on a Raspberry Pi with Raspbian mostly accessing it over putty to install packages and running python scripts. I recently installed Debian Stretch with Raspberry Pi Desktop on an old Laptop to program in python because the package manager is so convenient.I really like the experience in using this none bloated os. Wanting to buy a refurbished Thinkpad to use as a daily driver it is really confusing which Distro to pick.
Just stay with Debian or is it worth to check out other distros?

    I like manjaro. Based on arch but much easier to install

    You should try CentOS or Slackware.

    @kano I can second that! Manjaro is a wonderful distro that is quite the same as arch Linux but has the benefit of a quality gate.
    Just make sure that you read the specific laptop type page on arch wiki to know what works great and what doesn't (like the fingerprint reader)
