I have used Gentoo but at some point i switched to Ubuntu. At work we have Debian. My favorite is Ubuntu as more works out of the box and there are more package archives...

Kinda getting tired of Ubuntu... a combo of the reduced support window and the whole lens thing, don't really have anything against Unity as a whole though. But I know I'd miss the wide availability of packages.
I'm a little reluctant to switch to a RPM-based system just because I'm more comfortable with DEBs, although I'm experimenting with Centos on a VPS. If I can get comfortable with that then I guess that opens up a whole lot more options.
Mint sounds nice - although it looks like it just mirrors Ubuntu's support cycles.
Debian certainly has much to recommend it. I see that Mint makes a Debian-based version these days - sounds like that might be a perfect combo.
In the meantime I still have to be productive and get work done, so I'm sticking with Ubuntu because I know where everything is :-)

Quack,
If you are getting tired of Ubuntu - Mint would certainly be worth a shot.
I dont know that once you are used the DEB based systems that you want to switch to yum/RPM. I know I dont.

While it's certainly the "popular choice", I like Ubuntu for exactly that: Plenty of resources and support is available online to assist me with all kinds of questions and problems.

I'm using Ubuntu-GNOME because I don't like this Unity-stuff. Using some PPAs makes the desktop realy beautiful and useable. I also installed the Steam-Client to play some neat games.
