For me, I just spent the last week trying the latest Distros.

* Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon * Linux Mint 20 MATE * Manjaro Latest * Ubuntu 20.04 (Gnone) * Ubuntu 20.10 (Gnone) * Solus Bungie

I ended up with Linux Mint Cinnamon for one major reason. The rest all had weird issues with my Graphics on my ThinkPad P52 with has a Nvidia Q2000 Pro Mobile.

They all used the native Nvidia driver, but for some reason Linux Mint Cinnamon is the only one that works correctly with my Thunderbolt dock and two monitor setup.

As for usability, I found them all mostly the same though I did like the MATE's customizability a little more.

Good luck.
