Used to use Ubuntu but switched to Linux Mint 12. Find it much nicer.

i use mandriva very simple version of linux
artika is a good version for mail server or proxy
I use CentOS for servers and Ubuntu or Fedora for desktop use.
i think that ubuntu is the best one because is simple and there are lot of software for it, i use it since 2 years and i' m very happy to use it
You got to pick your OS depending on what your going to use it for and what kind of system your using it on, DebIan is the Grandfather of most Linux distros.
Debian-based distributions Topics at DuckDuckGo
but i would suggest giving BSD ago, its a Unix like Os thats compatible with Linux packages and runs Kde or Gnome desktops, its what the Mac OS X was based on.
5 Best BSD Distributions | TechSource
or you could give Suse a go if you want to run a desktop computer, a server, or a Super computer.
openSUSE.org
I like Zorin 6 and Pinguy both ubuntu based distros
Centos and Redhat at work Ubuntu with xfce at home!
Linux Mint Debian LMDE 201204 with MATE and mintMenu work great guys
I think redhat is the best in server
Linux Slackware ---- practice your executing Unix/Linux commands in text format.
a which one is the best thread
A never ending thread. FWIW:
They're all pretty much the same, the main differences are how much you ant to get involved in having to do something on installation, how much you want to be involved in the choice of software/applications you install and run, whether you want to do it all yourself etc.
Fedora and SuSE - easy to install, lots of predefined software distributed with them usually installed as package groups. Massive userbase for when things go wrong. Tend to have Gnome or KDE as the default GUI.
Ubuntu and Centos - as above, though plenty of support for compiling/building your own applications etc. Plenty of choice of GUI's, with some that are quite 'thin'.
Debian - easy to install. Needs more involvement and thought around installations etc, though you get a lot more choice in what/where/how for installation of applications and GUI's, be that from pre-compiled packages or compiling your own tailoring it to your needs. Ubuntu and quite a few other Linux's are Debian based.
BSD.... yes I know this is a Linux thread but you can't not mention BSD in it's various guises. If I had more time I'd probably use it more often.
My master plan is to live forever..... going to plan so far
Despite the cost of living, it's still very popular.
No good deed goes unpunished....
