Which Linux desktop? Something from the EU

I have been using Fedora Workstation for several years now. It’s a very good distribution, without unnecessary complications. However, after IBM acquired Red Hat and made some strange moves (e.g., with CentOS 8), I started wondering if I should switch to something else. I tested several different distributions but always ended up coming back.

Red Hat owns the trademark and logo rights for Fedora. On top of that, recent decisions by the U.S. government have made me consider local/European products and services more often.

I’d love to hear your suggestions regarding DEs and Linux distributions.

I'm mainly looking for something without unnecessary bloat, relatively up-to-date.
