Calling all linux nerds: What's the best linux distribution for being productive at work?

I want LEAST hassle with operating system and RECENT updates to central software (such as PHP).

Ubuntu is what I'm currently using and I'm tired of all it's "use snap" "go pro to get more security updates" etc. etc.

@zatnosk Something Arch based. I use Manjaro because I am lazy but just plain Arch might do the trick. There's even a graphical installer for it nowadays. (disclaimer: I have not tried it)
@zatnosk Also, you could keep Ubuntu for regular desktop stuff, but do all your dev work in a distrobox container running something more bleeding edge?
