I've been using Debian and KDE | xfce | i3 (depending on machine and task) as my main desktop and laptop operating system for 2+ years. Once I learned how to install wifi firmware I haven't had any hardware issues. And it runs much faster than Win 10 did on my little celeron laptop.

I'll add my recommendation for qutebrowser. i3, rxvt, and vim are where I spend most of my time.
