“Oh god, they will immediately be able to tell I am a fraud who has no idea what he’s doing when I tell them I use Ubuntu”
Ubuntu is fine and I actually am on Ubuntu after using Arch for many years
I use Ubuntu. I think it’s funny how Arch users immediately assume they know more about Linux than me because of my distro choice. My hobby is learning about Linux and I can do that perfectly from my Ubuntu machine.
I’ve used Arch in the past, and let me tell you, nothing crazy is going on in there.
Yes, Ubuntu sucks because they are forcing Snaps on people while snaps are slow as hell. Thankfully they haven’t fully shoved snaps down our throats. If they don’t make snaps faster before shoving them down my throat, I’ll just distro hop. Probably to Debian. I love Debian.
Arch users HAVE to know a lot because their updates break it conatantly
Arch user here. I have no idea what I’m doing. Killing Floor just crashed my graphics card or something to crash and my monitors aren’t working after reboots. Oh god

Honestly, it’s kinda my default general purpose linux distro at this point. Set it up bare bones and headless, rip out
snap
, and do what you want.Isn’t Arch a lot of manual compilation? Like I do that shit for work, I don’t want to do it in my free-time too.

I’ll never understand the Linux community in that aspect. We want the market share to grow but always clown on the Ubuntu users, who make up the majority of our market share. If you use Ubuntu, you’re already far ahead than OSX/Win users who complain Apple/Microsoft did a change they don’t like but still remain hostage in their ecosystem.

When I hear someone uses Mint I think “ah, they use better Ubuntu.”
“Steam Deck now leave me alone”
(cue DING sound and image of Arch installer)
AAAH!
(cue another DING sound with “Akira” echoing and an image of GNOME 3 desktop)
AAAAAAAAH!
of course the true and only “hannah montana linux”
It’s crazy that out of so many replies not even one was LFS.
Sometimes you just need an undebatable excuse. I use Linux Mint because LM are my initials and I’m too lazy to move to any other recommendations
What’s a distro? I just use the Linux kernel on a potato 🥔
I use Windows BTW
This used to be me while I distrohopped. Now, I’ve settled on which distro I will use. I use Arch, btw.
Mandrake, obv
So what is your distro? ;)
Some weather we’re having, eh?
It’s, er, a variant of FreeBSD.
Is that code for MacOS?
Erm. Maybe. Don’t ban me.
I will gladly tell them that i use arch btw
Hannah Montana Linux of course. Disney uses on their disney plus servers
As someone who gradually went from arch to Manjaro to Ubuntu because I kept breaking my installs or not having time, this resonates lol.
Garuda is an Arch distro that creates a system snapshot every time you upgrade. That way, if the upgrade breaks something, you can roll back to a previous, stable system.
Since developing early onset dementia, I’ve had to switch to mint.

To be honest it’s possible they’re not joking.
Linux mint is insanely user friendly, to the point where my father istalled it by himself as his first linux distro long after the first symptoms of dementia appeared and used it for years.
