My favorite distribution is [Gentoo], for 7 years now.
It allows me to have all the flexibility I need (the perfect world between stability with only legacy packages or recent ones on a constantly broken system; as in Gentoo, you always have choice) and it teaches me so many things each day.
As I'm used to control everything, here is a list of kernels' configurations I use currently.
<!--more-->
* [Dreamplug]: latest public Grsecurity kernel 4.9 (before, I used precompiled kernels from [Xilka]);
* [Cubieboard 2]: latest mainline kernel, currently 5.2;
* [Odroid-C1]: Linux 3.10 [custom branch](https://github.com/hardkernel/linux.git) for the Amlogic S805 (quad-core ARMv7 Cortex-A5 and Mali450) + upstream patches on 3.10 not merged in the Hardkernel tree;
* [Mirabox]: latest public Grsecurity kernel 4.9;
