Mainly Windows, tried many flavors of Linux desktops before as well but the need of troubleshooting random problems have really put me off. My main PC still runs Windows, macOS for work laptop.
Running Windows in my UTM, not really using it but just in case :)
All the common ones, including Arch (of course) :P
Ye I am using Nvidia, so that didn’t help. Usually I’ll hop into Linux distro every year as my attempt to move away from Windows, the most recent issue I can recall is mixed monitor refreshed rate not playing well ie. 144hz + 60hz monitor combi.
By default, X11 uses the lowest refresh rate and apply that to both screens - OK fine. Then I switched to Wayland, the refresh rate issue gone but I noticed some apps, including Discord doesn’t seem to play well, random flickering and shits. Switched back to X11, managed to fix the issue after hours of Googling. At that point, I was like meh - too much effort to get things to work for Linux. Back to Windows for my day-to-day usage, especially gaming.
All good no worries, I am a new macOS user myself and using UTM for desktop VM. Unsure how that is used in mobile environment.

Nah ain’t got time for Gentoo and the less mainstream ones, may try NixOS next year. Heard good things about it.
