Ask HN: Alternative to Ubuntu?

I enjoyed switching from FreeBSD to Ubuntu 8.04 some time ago -- the FreeBSD went into the rack and I could do office work on a nice Gnome desktop environment.

Until now.

Gnome is broken and unsupported. Keyboard shortcuts don't work anymore. It's frustratingly slow to work with a mouse. I feel so babied around. There's no workflow anymore. I hate it. I so would love to ask them what kind of grass they're smoking... there's just no love anymore.

So, what's THE Linux distro developers might want to switch to?
