I only want to point out that that there isn't such as the good, the bad and the ugly distro. No distro of the known distros with a huge user base is better or worse than another distro. I can mention advantages and drawbacks for most of them, IOW for all of them I used/I'm using.
When I read on a Debian list, that Debian is the best, or on an Ubuntu list that Ubuntu is the best or on an Arch list, that Arch is the best or ..., than I only read, the distro is a religion or an attitude to life, but distros aren't that. There's no need to glom on to a distro, this likely does cause more work, than to switch distros. Regarding to Cinnamon and Mate, they are often mentioned when users experience issues with GNOME3 when they switched from GNOME2 and you did it in the same context, that's why I only wanted to point out, that my impression is, that people should be careful to use those desktops on production environments, especially when installed from a third party repository.
