	Ubuntu	Arch Linux	Centos
Package Manager	apt, dpkg	pacman,	yum, rpm
Developer	Canonical Ltd.	Aaron Griffin and others	The CentOS Project (affiliated with Red Hat)

I have been using Ubuntu for past 5 years and I found it best for my use case.

It really depends on you how you want to compare them. I used wikipedia links for comparision.

And roughly saying about target users for these distros i would say:

Ubuntu : Seriously for anyone, from home users to research organizations

Arch Linux : for some serious developers who wants to customize everything they want in their distro

Centos : free version of Red Hat Linux

User Groups (googled it):

Centos: https://www.centos.org/forums/

Ubuntu: https://ubuntuforums.org

Rest is your part, If everything will be spoonfed to you, you will not learn anything. Search for problems in above usergroups.

If you will stuck somewhere, happy to help, but please atleast first try yourself.
