Although not my first distro, I feel a lot of nostalgia for SimplyMepis

If you keep using these tools then you get what you deserve

I started with Corel Linux, moved to Mandrake and then began an 18 year distro-hopping journey. To keep it interesting, I rolled a d100 on distrowatch.com and installed whatever I landed on. About 6 years ago I landed on openSUSE Tumbleweed and haven't hopped since if you don't count a brief dalliance with endeavour on my laptop.

KDE Plasma because I can bend it to my workflow. When I try Xfce and especially Gnome, I feel I have to bend to their workflows.

Although there is a live image to try it in a VM, but you can’t use it to install

I thought they had the net installer but I've never tried the live isos so I could be wrong.

Although I don't use them, the Jetbrains products should be near the top of the list.

Yes you can but you often see the terminal used when helping people online. This is because it works across desktop environments and mostly across distros, however it does give the impression that the terminal is needed.

The openSUSE Wiki says not to use ventoy as it can cause boot issues.

What you guys are referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.

That's not necessarily true any more. There are distros built without the GNU tools.
