Hello, I’m looking for a new distro that aligns with my privacy preferences and offers a wide range of packages without requiring me to search for PPAs, similar to Manjaro. I’ve grown uneasy about Manjaro’s decision to collect unique data like MAC addresses and disk serial numbers by default, even if it’s for diagnostic purposes.

In light of this, I’d like to ask for your recommendations on a Linux distro that meets the following criteria:

1. No opt-out telemetry: I’m looking for a distro that doesn’t collect any unique data by default.
2. Access to a wide range of packages: I prefer a distro that offers a vast repository of packages, so I don’t have to search for PPAs or third-party repositories.
3. User-friendly: I’m not a fan of complicated configurations or steep learning curves, so a distro with a user-friendly approach would be ideal.

I’m curious to hear any recommendations you might have. Thanks!
