Mi choice is Manjaro.

The reason because I like it over other distros is because is based in arch and I can use the AUR repository without having to deal with the difficulty of installing arch. (There are other alternatives such as Antergos with similar characteristics)

In fact to install the distributuon with a complete desktop environment (such as KDE, GNOME, XFCE...) is as easier as any debian based distribution.

As I mention before the main reason why I'm using it, it's because of the AUR repository where you even can find packages of apps with the last github version.

I've used Debian, Suse, Fedora and Mint in the past and I always had to struggle when having to install or uninstall something that wasn't in the official repositories and even that there are similar alternatives like PPA repositories for ubuntu it's nothing comparable to AUR.
