What distros have you tried and thought, "Nope, this one's not for me"?
I've been using Linux Mint since forever. I've never felt a reason to change. But I'm interested in what persuaded others to move.

No downvote here my friend. I love arch, but that doesn’t mean it’s for everyone. Plug-and-play distros are great too, they just have different strong points.
Haha, I've been daily driving slackware since the late 90s. I like to tinker and install a lot of stuff. I seem to break anything with an automated package manager and dependency resolution.
Oops, I seem to have misread you. Haha, ok, wow I am a total linux noob compared to you.
Nah, I'm just a hobbyist. I'm a n00b compared to all the regulars in the slackware channel on IRC. But I love tinkering and learning. I'd need your help to install vanilla arch, just like you'd probably need mine to get started on slackware. (The slackware install is actually super easy).
I've been trying to distrohop the past couple months, see what else is out there. I wasn't paying attention installing Garuda and borked my EFI partition. I did manage to chroot into my still working slackware partition, but I couldn't figure out how to re-install grub. So I formatted and did a fresh slackware install.
