I play with Linux distro's mainly in virtual machines, with a view to keeping various old Mac's alive, and with a view to keeping my computing skills up to date. So far,I rather like Solus, but it is causing me a lot of difficulties during the installation, in fixing screen resolution and screen size. The kind of thing one had to deal with when trying out Linux 15 years ago. Next, the big upgrades which have to be done before you can do any real work tend to fail halfway and one needs to try again, I suppose because there are not many servers out there hosting Solus. Finally, I can't easily run R and R Studio, which means I need to install a virtual machine in my virtual machine in order to do some real work after I have finished the play- and learning part. At least it seems that Texlive is available. Oh well. I suppose " 'tis early days yet".
