I agree this statement with blind eyes. 'Self-experience' is the biggest satisfaction, it is in fact practical implementation in life!
The _basics_ are the same (certainly from an end-user point of view)
Perhaps the best advice I can give you, is: put an extra harddisc in your PC.
(if you are the "hasty type" consider a 250GB SDD)
And you pick blindly any distro, and just get your hands wet.
Don't be afraid to make mistakes: we all learned from our owns.
Nowadays, you can't really break anything anymore.
And if you manually change config files: make a copy of it, and if you are satisfied with it:
Print it out and/or save it on a usb-stick.
(so if you have to re-install it, you don't have to re-invent your wheel)
Biggest diff, is the look-and-feel of the desktop managers, and the appropriate applications.
But otoh KDE or Gnome (a certain version) looks the same on any distro.
Oh I see.
So just try it. Work with it a couple of months. And try something else. Read the available docu.
What is best suited for you only depends on you only.
I started with slackware, tried RedHat, Debian, SuSE, CentOS, netBSD, FreeBSD.
Perhaps I should try Gentoo...
They all have their pro's and con's
You and other people here are really having great experiences.
And for Tyro: Just try and find out what _you_ like best.
There is no replacement for experience.

--The printer on the usb port was found on all Fedora versions I have used
since F13. Earlier I had a different printer. So the problem with your
printer may not be completely a Fedora problem.
Oh I see.
