It seems a little early to make the selection but TechRadar has a roundup of their picks for best Linux distros and some elegant screenshots, though nothing new for us old hats. But you'll never guess who got the #1 position. Such serendipitous timing!

I read this one last night and you beat me to the post, Elementary steals the win! I must admin I as happy to see Arch ranked so high.

I have an arch instance that I have been running for a little over a year and I have no reason to swap it / change it out!

Although Ubuntu might steal me away from Centos.
Arch, Windows, Ubuntu, MacOS. In that order. (Definitely 08/2024)

That gave me a smile, too. I'm still considering going back to it, at least on my laptop. It was fun building and customizing it. And I never had any problem with it, either.

Maybe sometime you could start a topic on this, why you might switch to Ubuntu (Server, I presume?) from CentOS. I'm curious.
