I've been looking for an alternative to Ubuntu because I'm unhappy with how paternalistic Canonical has been leaning in the latest Ubuntu releases. This may be a great time to switch to Kubuntu.
I was hoping to install Trisquel GNU/Linux recently. It's based on Ubuntu but is recommended by the Free Software Foundation as it uses the Linux-libre kernel and has all proprietary code/firmware and binary blobs removed.
Unfortunately, the only drivers for the wifi on my laptop are non-free, so the wifi works under Ubuntu but not under Trisquel.
It's worth booting up the live image to see if it works for you though. If you care about these things that is.
