DistroWatch maintains the list of the currently popular distros. Look on the right-hand side for that list.
They also have news, etc about the Linux world.

'Distros' is why Linux isn't mainstream. Too many choices. How many in Windows currently? XP, 7, 8, 10, 11. When you can narrow down your linux distros to 4 or 5 and have a kazillion people collaborating on those to fine tune them, call me. Even calling it Distro is a too techy for most. For whatever reason, Linux just has never been able to market itself right. Probably superior product with egos and arrogance to match.
My experience with Mint was not stellar. I had the hardest time connecting my printer. Never did figure it out. So, calling someone lazy (as someone on here did just now) doesn't help your cause. I would love to ditch MS, but until the tech minds at Linux put their heads together to make it non-tech user friendly, they'll just be great OS without home users.
Then again, we wouldn't have these killer Linux/Window/Mac threads if they improved their marketing of the product.
