So, yeah. What's a good Linux distro for stable diffusion and programming?

It just comes down to personal preference. Mint is usually recommended as a good starting point.

Fedora or Mint should be the most hassle-free

Not a whole lot.

All of them.

Biggest difference a distro does is their update cycle and how much the distro "takes care" of you. Some of them do everything behind the scenes to make it just work. Others need more user interaction to reach the same state (but tend to teach you the inner workings too, which will open up a LOT of customization)
