What other distros should I try?
I'm trying to get more well rounded in different variations of Linux, especially in terms of installation, administration, setup, updates, package management/software installation, security etc.
I've used Ubuntu for years and am (mostly) comfortable with how things work and how to fix or tweak them. I recently installed Centos 7 in a VM and have been learning that ecosystem and am slowly getting more familiar with it as well. A lot of things are done differently in Centos/Redhat/Fedora than in Ubuntu/Debian.
I've also played with Linux Mint in the past, but that's mainly just Ubuntu with a different face... a different desktop manager.
So, in interest of educating myself, what other distros should I try, that are different from Ubuntu? Arch? SUSE?
I suppose in addition to this, I should play around with more desktop environments like KDE, MATE, etc. I've messed with xfce some (Xubuntu and Mythbuntu).
Suggestions y'all?
