Ubuntu is good right after you install it, but then steadily decreases in quality. I got to the point where I avoided updates, because random things always broke.

After trying several distributions. I ended up long-term moving to Arch, it's way more work to setup but it has more of a I built it, I can fix it vibe. I always struggled to fix previous distributions after some update blowing something up.

In my opinion, the biggest thing Mac and Windows has going on is how stable they are.
