Hmmm. Never been a particular fan of Ubuntu myself, especially 
in recent years, but it does seem to have mindshare sometimes, 
and a share of press coverage in mainstream-ish media that to
me seems to be more related to Canonical's media-friendly skills
rather than anything directly related to what Canonical/Ubuntu 
has brought to the table in recent years (even taking things like 
Mint into account).

I do still like KDE etc for various reasons.

Where does KDE Neon fit in? Have a look at
https://neon.kde.org/faq
for a better answer than I can offer here at the moment.

Another well kept secret is that official variants of SUSE
(both Enterprise Server and OpenSuse flavours) are and have
been available through the Windows 10 App Store for maybe 
a couple of years. It's not just for Ubuntu :)

Might be of interest to some folk (but not to me, as the
Windows Store is not currently in my IT strategy).
