I can see Bazzite keep growing from interest in streamlined console experience Linux gaming. Pop_OS probably won't grow again until after Cosmic DE is better. It's not so bad now but still a number of annoyances and bugs. Once it's stable it can contend better again as a gaming and general consumer centric distro. Mint is solid so no surprises that it can quietly grow

Bazzite has been great as a first dd distro coming from windows. Completely functional and easy to pickup.

I'm personally waiting on Cosmic to be stable, then I'll run it on my laptop.

Like 2 days ago I decided to try pop_os on my main again. Way better than September. Enough for me to be able to tolerate the quirks. But still bugs here and there to the point I wouldn't recommend it to most users. Maybe by the end of the year
