I personally like the fact that u-he, acmt and audio damage provide their plugins on linux. I know, not FOSS, but game changing when it comes to switching music production over to linux. Vital is also available on linux, as is bitwig as host.

mint user here. rocksolid distro, maybe not bleeding edge but very good as a daily driver; also for music production. reasonably customizable desktop with cinnamon.
only caveat: some vst plugins do not work well with wine when it comes to their copy protection (#izotope and #ssl among them), others do (such as #kilohearts)
… suppose these algorithms will be real efficient once they have significant less users to consider. win/win
Anything arch, basically. Maybe I’m just a too lower tier power user, but I have always returned to Mint. Rock solid daily driver working out of the box. I don’t really want to have to tinker with the os, I admit. It should just work.
