Are you waiting for an invitation?
Oooh yeah, baby, let's debug the networking stack together!
Yep. "Depends on the use case" is a solid answer.

"Debian or Arch?"
It's the best of both worlds
Get out you corporate sellout!
spoiler
RPMs are better than DEBs
Yeah I get some good RPMs on my 2001 Honda Civic.

My wife uses Debian, but I love her anyway. β€οΈ
Do you call her Debbie Anne?
Fun fact that not a lot of people seem to know: the name is a portmanteau of "Deborah" and "Ian". The names of the Creator and his then wife

She's just baffled that anyone who knows those two distributions could be so dense as to whittle down the vast infinite sea of possible options to just two incredibly boring ones. She would have cried next if he hadn't done it.
Also, OpenSUSE.
well the vast majority of those are just arch and debian with extra steps, with the occasional fedora based or independent distro

ubuntu because my brain is so small
the name comes from the Bantu word "ubuntu" which loosely translated means, "debian is too hard"
Her: it depends on who's asking and their usecase
- Pls marry me (pls)
Both.
Debian for anything that has to run unattended for a long time without requiring much care. Arch for the desktop.

Debian, of course. My computer is a tool, not a hobby.
Plus, I like apt. It's nice.
openSUSE.
Im still surprised that opensuse still exists. We had to give it a try for networking classes back in ~2007 and it was very server oriented and totally didnt have a desktop feel.
That was almost 20 years ago. It is nothing like that anymore I would say. Some things are still more complicated to configure but then, other things just work that don't work for example on my other system that runs pop-os, in general openSUSE is just as easy to install as any user friendly distro. And among the rolling release distros, openSUSE Tumbleweed is probably the most stable of them all.
opi is a great tool, even when just looking for applications in the regular repository. But then you can also very easily access the open build service with it as well.
This hurts because Debian is named after a couple (Debra Lynn and Ian Murdock) who got married and divorced and Ian passed away. Going with Debian is a lifetime of hurt.
On the other hand Arch girls are described in Rick James's song "Superfreak".
