Linux Mint 20 isn't exactly bursting with freshness but, hey, there's kernel 5.4 and it's a long-term support release

A fair question but I don't think there is any metrics, and so what.

What if say VW Polo was the worlds most sold car is it then also the most popular or just more affordable or something.

I have settled for one distro years ago, it works well and that's it. At times I download some other on some other laptop, more or less for fun.

If I was a new user I would try several to my hearts content as then long ago and compare.

As an European I support a European, as an American I would support an American distro.

Choose one that pleases your eyes and you get to grips with, they are, after all, all Linux.

For real numbers I suppose Google could tell us a lot, if they wanted to.
