Steal away. An old boss knew the person who maintains that page. If I remember correctly it's entire reason for being is for that one question.

Linux users fall into three categories. People who want stability over everything else, people who want everything to be bleeding edge, and people who don't use desktop environments.

The most important thing for a new user is understand which of those three they are.

I'll be honest, unless you have been using Linux for...a long time, of your job requires you to manage servers, your probably not that last category.

If you enrolled in the windows insider/test doohickey then you might want look into the rolling release distros. If not, something with a standard release cadence will be better.

I my self? All of the servers I manage have no desktop environment (core infrastructure does not need graphics). But if I am on a workstation? LMDE - Because I care about the graphics getting out of my way so I can do my job.
