Arch aren't hipsters. They are extreme hardcore. I work with one of them. On technical issues there are two options
1. arm arch is better than solution X.
2. we can provide proof that arch linux is worse than X in the current state then a few days pass away and there is a new version and he provides a counter-proof.

And ubuntu's copy of goodle play store: ubunty software center still needs a weekly reinstall because reboot doesn't work. (At least that was the case for the last LTS-linux that i did install.

No, most of them aren't hipsters. But it is the hip distro right now. It's the one hipsters choose.

Really depends on the use case -- I'd rather give someone ubuntu mate (non-LTS).

This is the case for any rolling distro.... in fact in Gentoo it's quite trivial for me to pull in the latest git source and still have it in my package manger, in addition to compiling with useful debugging information.

The Ubuntu Software Center has been abandoned and is being replaced in 16.04 with Gnome Software which is quite nice (I use it on Fedora).

Gnome Software itself is gaining support for xdg-app, which will provide app sandboxing. Whether or not Ubuntu will support it when it's ready is another matter.
