Have been using Mandrake/Mandriva from 1999 till 2010. The turmoil around Mageia as a non-profit left me in doubt and I switched to Fedora (which was a mess and didn't do system upgrades at that time). So I switched to Debian a few years later. This was during the transition to systemd, which slowly broke my system. So I went back to Mageia since the grass at the neighbours wasn't very green. I could not be happier.
Urpmi is highly valued inside the Mageia community, system upgrades have worked since the year 2000, and they work inplace, from the running system. Drakconf is a system config tool that hardly exists in other distro's, there is only SuSE with Yast. Choosing a desktop is straightforward and most things I want/desire are available.
