¿which processor is better? Intel vs AMD VS Others?

Kevinsotovalle with Solus, I haven't noticed much of a difference in processors between Intel and AMD on my hardware. I'm running 7th gen Intel (Kaby Lake) quad core, 2nd gen Ryzen quad core, 3rd gen Ryzen 4+6core, and 4th gen Intel (Haswell) dual core.
I lean toward the Ryzen 3/5 over an i3/i5. I'd choose an i7 over a Ryzen 7 though, they just seem to be a bit faster in the machines I've used. No experience on the higher end 9 series, threadripper or xenon stuff.
Windows, it makes a huge difference on the same hardware. I'd go for an AMD chip all day if you want raw performance. If you want the best integration and battery life, probably Intel, they just seem a step or two behind the AMF chips as far as speed to me.
Of course, this is all my subjective opinion, benchmarks will be more objective and as always YMMV.

I think the discussion can be reduced to kernel compatibility, as everything else is build on top of it.
From everything I've read an watch on YouTube, always on new hardware could be some problems that are solved days after release, drivers mostly; Intel have long time collaborating to the kernel, and I think most of Intel's released cpu work smoothly under linux, AMD's cpus works as good as the hardware can run like intel ones, it has collaborated to the kernel as well though.
On the other side, and I'm getting a little sideways on the discussion, GPU wise is other story, AMD GPUs working good, INTEL don't have one as far as I know and NVIDIA the experience with drivers isn't good until recently but only for new hardware, from 30 series if I remember correctly, and no RT at the moment for linux. Kronos is working on it for vulkan and mesa, there is progress thoug.

And considering others, RISC-V looks promising and ARM, well it's ARM, the support is good but every SOC is different so, to covert almost every cpu architecture there would be a lot of work to do, you can see cualcom, mali (the worst support I have see) and others manufactures like pine64 or raspberry, even apple with the M1(Alpine linux is closer to their first stable release, I'm looking forward to that as it can be beneficial to other distros ) there's variety in the arm world, it depends on the use.

tomscharbach I find it interesting too that Intel has their own version of Linux, which apparently is the fastest version of Linux on Intel processors.

[deleted] Intel has their own version of Linux

I knew that at one time, but if I've ever tried it, I've forgotten all about it. Thanks for the reminder!

I'm pretty sure I know what version of Linux will be on my next experimental VM.
