I'd like to know a bit more about your troubles to answer.

Do you know what desktop you were using? If so, what did you like and what didnt you like?

Where were you reentering your password all the time? Was it logging in, logging in after the screen went dark, the wallet, etc?

What sort of troubleshooting were you doing? Was it an application not working, a piece of hardware, or something else?

The reason I'm asking these questions is because most people are interacting with just the desktop GUI, so some of your issues (password) may just be configuration, the distribution won't matter. If your troubleshooting was due to hardware, there may be a better choice.

For example, I use Debian everywhere. That said, there are times where certain pieces of software or certain pieces of hardware work better with a different distribution. On my T480, I'm using arch, mostly because of the fingerprint reader and a some things I'm building will be easier this way.

Generically speaking, it doesnt matter which distribution you use, you can do the basics on all of them. What it can come down to is familiarity, hardware, and purpose, and the guiding principles for each distribution.
