Ask HN: Best Linux Distro for Development

I'm strongly leaning towards PopOs since I like Debain support, but Ubuntu is turning into Windows ( cloud services, telemetry, etc).

Given the absolute nightmare of Windows Recall, I opted to buy a 8845HS laptop instead. I plan on installing a nice 4TB SSD as well, with about 500 GB for Linux - I make tons of music and this is better supported in Windows.

I really enjoy Manjaro, but I find it's much harder to get working with certain software working.

I'm going to be developing embedded applications, flutter apps, and maybe some Android.

My main concern is speed, what's fast, what's not.

However, I'm also open to smaller niche distos, feel free to pitch your passion project!
