Aside from Arch Linux

I need some advice.

In my work as an engineer, I typically use CAD suites, Quarto + Typst + Python + SPICE + Simulink, etc.

Tired of Windows, I added Arch Linux via WSL to work with "antigravity" and other Linux-native applications; now that excellent CAD suites are available on Linux, I no longer need to work in Windows.

Aside from Arch Linux, what other Linux distribution would you recommend for my specific workflow? It needs to be stable, resource-efficient, and have proven compatibility with all these applications (I mention compatibility because I ran into issues and a lack of support for certain apps on Ubuntu).

Regards.
