After 5 voting days, we can publish the results for the best Linux distribution that emerged in our referendum, as we can not expect surprising surprises.
Before publishing the results, we should mention that what you will see below is not representative of what is prevailing in the market. For example, let us mention the distribution of Kali Linux, which is a very specialized distribution and is not used by the majority.
This particular distro on DisrtoWatch ranks 29th while in its poll SecNews.gr the same distribution had its due, occupying the third place due to the profile of the website's visitors.
Nevertheless the Ubuntu (unfortunately because there are much more worthy ones distributions) takes first place (in DisrtoWatch it comes third), followed by Mint (first in DisrtoWatch) followed by Debian, Manjaro, openSUSE, CentOS and Fedora as you will see in the images below.
In the poll we noticed something that was expected. Remarkable distributions such as Debian, Manjaro, openSUSE, CentOS and Fedora are not well ranked because they are not so easy for the general public.
This is not the case with Manjaro, or openSUSE as I think even newcomers can try them without encountering any particular problems.
Please note that the poll was the first 15 distributions from DistroWatch's Page Hit Ranking with two exceptions.
We added to 14 and 15 the MX Linux a distinct distribution, Kali Linux, while 14 and 15 were not DistroWatch.
Those who did not find their preferred distribution were Other. Of course, as you will notice, there was also a Windows fanatic who lost his way, but also someone who thought it good to clarify why and why not Ubuntu.
