I went from Redhat to Debian because Redhat started to do pretty installations that left me not knowing what had happened. Debian is predictable and well tested and consistent, which is excellent for servers and idiots like me who have trouble remembering where things are. It's a bit more tricky for desktop installs, and nowhere near as pretty. Personally, I've never regretted switching, but I don't do anything "fancy" with it.
