Don't be so sure of that. I used to use Gentoo 20 years ago. I use Kubuntu today. Why? Because I don't care anymore and just want something that works with minimal effort.
The last time I reinstalled my OS, about a year ago, it was because I replaced the SSD. The time before that was seven(?) years earlier, when I built the system in the first place.
Snaps mildly annoy me though, so I might change. Eventually, after probably several more years.
I bet there are more people like me (long-time users picking boring, "basic" distros) than you think. We just aren't usually very conspicuous compared to the "I use Arch BTW" crowd who are new enough that they still feel the need to make distro choice part of their identity.
