Debian should be a small truck (i.e. one that's actually used for cargo, not as a penis prosthetic), and the bottom right is clearly Gentoo!

Arch is kinda more like looking at a catalogue of parts.

Endevour is the same catalogue of parts, but with a flier inserted with a "recommmended loadout" where you can just check some boxes and get whatever it was you wanted, but the doors there to sawzall the trunk off and attach a cargo box if you want.

I can't remember the name of it, but there's one type of inexpensive small truck that I see people wishing for in the US constantly. Very utilitarian and barebones function over form. That would be a good fit.

Gentoo is just a pile of steel and aluminum beams, a few drums of oil, a cow, and a note that reads "Good luck."

Fedora

Proxmox?

Which would make this ESXI?

Especially since it's on its way out.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as a technical, is in fact, GNU/Technical, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Technical.

Ehhh, I think Debian should be like a 10-15 year old civic or something. You know an "ol' reliable" type. It isn't up to date and it's not flashy, but it works and it works well.

Mint would probably be like a 2 year older version but with a fresh coat of paint and a lifted suspension.

That's lfs.
Gentoo is a kit car like the Blakley Bearcat.
