Debian for most of my machines, rock solid and works. I’ve had 0 problems with Debian on any computer its downloaded on. And I personally don’t need very up to date packages.
On my main computer (currently Windows due to hardware compatibility issues on Linux), I’ve flip flopped between Pop and Fedora depending on how much I need 3D graphics applications.
Admittedly I’ve clicked on a handful of interesting Youtube ads but not one in the past 5 years, so I can’t remember what they were. I just don’t really see Youtube ads unless I’m on a mobile device or I turn them on to help a creator get revenue, as I use a pretty strong adblocker on my PC. Don’t snitch to Google about that though.
I’m a bit more sympathetic to Youtube ads since they are a revenue source for some of my favorite creators, as much as I hate the way Youtube goes about it. Never clicked on any other ads besides these though.
