For my personal use it's easily Arch. I like the whole "roll-your-own" philosophy (without having to compile things like Gentoo), I like that it sticks as close to vanilla upstream packages as possible, I like the AUR filling in any gaps the repos don't have and I LOVE the documentation. There's a bit more maintenance and upkeep involved than your average distro but it's worth it for the benefits.
For everyone else, especially beginners, Fedora. Fedora KDE to be specific. You have a relatively vanilla and up-to-date distro (but not TOO much like Arch), you have almost the entire Linux software catalogue at your fingertips with Flathub and RPMFusion, you have some relatively sane defaults and you have a lot of community support coupled with the Arch wiki since Fedora and Arch are configured in quite the parallel. I push Fedora on anyone looking for a first distro to try.
