It's free, gratis and it's fun to use and tweak.
I took a couple of in-person Linux courses when I was about 16-17. Teacher gave me a Kubuntu 6.06 CD to try at home.
A short time later I was using Ubuntu 8.04, 9.04, etc. and until last year I was on Ubuntu MATE 14.04 until I made a new MATE 20.04 install and I built a new main PC with MATE 22.04.
I really notice the difference in UI apps between Ubuntu and Debian, which I tried (and failed) to swich to several times already.
I've used and gave support to RHEL in a couple of jobs (graphical and non-grahpical)
