    From my personal experience, ubuntu (lts or not), has a tendency of nuking itself randomly. It’s happened more than one time to me, to shit off my PC, eat something, return to a broken installation that doesn’t boot. And I’ve got plenty of experience with fedora just not doing things, like mtp, vulkan on flatpaks, I’ve had it crash on login (on x11), and had gnome apps constantly crashing (on wayland). Currently, I’m using debian, and I’ve never had any issues with it, other than outdated packages, which is relatively minor

      Thank you for sharing your experiences! While my personal experiences with these distros don’t quite match yours, I do appreciate your openness in this regard.

      Just to be clear, it’s not my intent to persuade OP to a specific distro of my liking. Rather, I was interested to know why they would rather troubleshoot their booting issues on Debian instead of returning to distros that have shown to work.
