I'm wondering what Linux distros my fellow soylentils use, and why.
I myself have loved Fedora since version 7, and never cared much for Debian systems. My desktops either run Fedora or a source-built XFCE system. What distros do you use, what architectures, and why do you use them? Are there any distros you wish were still around?

I've recently switched to Mint 17.1 XFCE. Like most things about it more than MATE, but Thunar has been too buggy for me to use in the past.
I switched to MATE from XFCE a few years ago after finding it would not display files with"$%" in the name. That was the last straw.
Now after a couple of years and Thunar fixing many of the issues, I am giving Mint 17.1 XFCE a try. Unfortunately Thunar is still buggy. Every once in a while I'll click on a dir and nothing will happen. Then I'll try again, but instead of changing to the dir it opens a file. Found that Thunar is changing to the dir, but not redrawing the screen afterwards. Scrolling the side pane causes a redraw, but I never know Thunar is misbehaving before it does something I didn't intend it to do. Completely unacceptable for a file browser.
Be careful while using it.
