Whats the best Linux OS i can ?

Looking to use Linux, but i don’t know what OS of linux to use, i’ve heard of ubuntu, red hat, and many more.

as we all know Fedora linux is opensource as a big player to the open source community. and according to that it should be freely available for everyone. just like any distribution available i.e Ubuntu / mint/ Puppy linux/ Debian .. and so on. BUT i found this in teh small print on FEDORa’s download site as well as RED HAT’s
