Nowadays, Mint definitely. I have used a lot of distros during my life from debian-based to arch Linux. However, because of the bigger community in Debian-based distros (Ubuntu in Mint's case), I migrated to Mint because it is, for me, one of the biggest and most beautiful distros- I mean, you could personalize anyone but mint has its facilities - with an active community.
I'd be willing to move to Debian if they manage to pull of something like AUR, the only reason I'm not using Ubuntu based distributions' is because of the whole PPA thing.
PPAs (and other third-party APT repos) are typically FAR more stable than AUR in my experience (just over 12 years now with Ubuntu in particular, Ubuntu Studio 8.04 was my first taste - it's also worth noting that you need far fewer third party packages for any sort of multimedia creation in Ubuntu because of Ubuntu Studio).
TBH Clement's temper tantrum over Snap was absurd, when he could easily have added the vaapi Chromium deb PPA and pinned its packages (as I do in Ubuntu), or just added them to the Mint repos, without making it harder for Mint users to install snaps if they want to. Especially when you consider the overwhelming majority of "Mint" packages are actually mirrored from Ubuntu repos.

I agree Mint is one of the best Distribution out there. It is solid, stable and the community is awesome.
