My first one that I stayed with and kept as an actually OS was PopOS. Haven’t changed since. Works well and does what I need. Can’t wait to see what Cosmic has in store.

As for what made me go to Linux. Windows was cumbersome to program in. Had to use another app to run command lines, putty. Used Linux terminals before and knew that it was easier to run programs from command line so I decided to give the desktop a try. So much better!
