I've been using Ubuntu for as long as I've been a Linux user, and with the way things are going I'm fixing to switch. I'm only really familiar with Debian-based distros but I've heard the packages Debian comes with are often outdated. Arch seems pretty cool but I've heard it's quite unstable. I've heard good things about Fedora.

I've also heard people say that systemd is the antichrist. Is it really that bad?

I saw a video on how shady Manjaro is a while back and it's given me a bad impression on the distro.

I had a love/hate relationship with Manjaro for a really long time also. Early on, updates would break my shit, then later their plans for office software seemed sketch. When I finally decided to jump off a Ubuntu distro when the whole SNAP shit started, I wanted something with access to the AUR because it's too good to passup. I decided to try Manjaro 1 last time. I've been on it now for 4 years, same install. I realize impressions can be a strong sway, but I'd urge you to at least give it a week test. Their software updater is on par with anything you'll use in any other "free" distro, their release cycle (usually) filters out the bugs that come with Arch, and if an issue does arise, you'll have access to the Arch wiki, instead of searching through Ubuntu or Debian forum posts hoping someone had a similar issue.
