Why should I switch to any Linux distro when I'm presented with a new?
Firstly, Long Term Support (LTS) releases are very stable. You should choose LTS releases of the distro you want to use. Ensure your distro has the latest packages. Most errors in LTS releases can be fixed easily because they are usually caused by either missing packages or incorrect setup. In case, it is neither, you can take a few minutes to search online for a solution to the problem. They are quite often quite simple to fix. If hardware doesn't work, you may have to install drivers specifically for them or appropriate libraries. For instance, graphics cards. Microphone arrays are also notorious for this issue.
