#3Best resource for me since the early 2000's has been https://distrowatch.com.
No bloat, just the latest info on Linux distro releases.
As well as the versions for popular packages in the release.
Looks like NixOS 17.03 dropped yesterday (2017/03/31): https://distrowatch.com/?newsid=09772
Couple of days before that, Oracle Linux 6.9 (https://distrowatch.com/?newsid=09770) and DragonFly BSD 4.8.0 (https://distrowatch.com/9769).
For those who still use news readers, the feed is at https://distrowatch.com/news/dw.xml.

Probably just those of us using Ubuntu 16.04 who agree with the article.

#8Is there any Linux distro out there that supports sleep/hibernate flawlessly ?
I've got a very plain Asus notebook (no Nvidia card, just Intel Graphics!) running Debian 8 and the situation is unacceptable atm. I didn't have to reboot for weeks in the past. At the moment I am lucky if my laptop doesn't freeze thanks to sleep/hibernate within 2 days.

#9TL;DR: Ubuntu 16.04, Manjaro and Chromium OS

My recommendation for any kind of serious desktop use is always Gentoo. Problems like the one you mention are much easier to solve when you can pick which versions of all packages to install and which kernel flags to enable.
