When I first began researching Linux, for my needs, I found the number of different Distros to be overwhelming. So I made this flow chart, with the intent to help new users find a starting point for choosing a distribution.

I'm open to critique, as to making this chart as helpful as possible.

EDIT: Chart updated based on suggestions in the comments.

Whats the difference between a debian base and ubuntu base? Just packages? Wouldn't each distro bring its own repository source anyway?
Call me crazy but I like how debian handles things (apt and deb) but I'm not a fan of ubuntu's snap everything philosophy. Will a ubuntu based distro bring that as well? Pop for example.
