I’m very curious of which distro users loves the most that they have it on their daily hardware?

And we all know Arch isn’t a distro right?
Debian (desktop) and Mint (laptop), because I don’t need to use the latest version of every app I use and because it works so well.
If I had to chose a single one, it would be Debian but I don’t have to chose ;)
I switched to Zorin OS (from Windows) at the beginning of this year and never looked back. Great for newbies.
Debian and Fedora. I use Debian on servers and Fedora on my desktop and laptop.
I think Pop!_OS and Linux Mint are the best no brains required distributions.
I really like the tiling window support in Pop_OS!'s Cosmos desktop.
LFS
Personnaly, i’m using Fedora and i love it!
IIRC Torvalds uses Fedora.
(Debian for me.)
IIRC Torvalds uses Fedora.
Me too
I personally use Alpine on my Thinkpad
Hell yeah, Alpine on older Thinkpads rules. What DE / WM are you using ?
Sway :3
Neat! I used it as well but I would rather use dwm or xfce recently.
I wanted a Wayland WM but also something lightweight
GNU Guix
Mx
I use Gentoo and I love it. The installation process is a bit more complex than Arch but it doesn’t have to be if you choose the precompiled kernel.
The package management is extremely flexible and the community are great. I have a morning routine where I log onto my gentoo desktop before work and update everything; would compare it to raking one of those miniature buddhist sand gardens. Very theraputic!
Have got Debian on an old thinkpad too because it is too under resourced to compile everything. I think Debian is amazing for a solid, reliable distro if you have weak hardware.
Arch because I like getting the latest releases of packages
Yeah. It’s a pretty good linux distro for Beginners. It was my first distro tho. 😁
I’m sorry but it’s not great for beginners. It’s a rolling bleeding edge distro that does not break often but when it does you need to know how stuff works to fix it.
Really depends on what you do and value. I use lots of kde software, so kde distros are my go to. then one big diffrence between distros is how they get updated. do you want the latest updates asap on the costs of stability, or do you want an effing never crashing distro but lag behind in updates a few months/years, or a middleground.
These are the two points i considered when i choose.

Over the course of the last 20 years, I’ve gone from Arch -> Void -> Pop!_OS -> Ubuntu, and that is what I use on all my machines (laptops, desktops, servers).
