What Linux distribution or distributions do you personally use?
I myself am a daily Void user. I used to use Devuan, but wanted to try rolling release and ended up loving Void!
Debian. Several reasons:
- It’s trustworthy.
- It’s not going anywhere. Debian existed when I was a kid and it’ll probably still exist when I draw my last breath.
- I know how to use it, since, once again, I’ve been using it since I was a kid.
- It has all the desktop environments.
- It fully supports systemd. I do not miss the unreliability, slowness, and complexity of what came before that. (Normally I wouldn’t mention this, but your former distro of choice exists solely for the purpose of not having systemd, so it’s relevant this time.)
The thought that Debian will continue into the future feels comforting. How cool it would be if in 5000AD kids on Mars or Europa are running Debian 100?
I was a distro hopper once, then I saw the light of NixOS…
Tell me about it…
The only reason I might, in the distant future, ever consider changing again is this project, which hopefully would be something between NixOS and Qubes. But that is far in the future and not even that certain.
I use Debian with a patched version of motif window manager. The 90s never ended:
Ubuntu for life. Unpopular opinion i know, please don’t stone.
When you take Pop_OS! into account?
umm it’s literally the most popular distro
Linux Mint. Nothing beats your computer just working when you have shit to get done.
Same. Mint, because n00b.
I have a few dozen computers and most run Pop!_OS.
Garuuuuuda. Love it. Been running it for the past few years. The devs come off as assholes, but they’re actually just German;)
Linux Mint, it just works
Fedora on the desktop. I got my start on Red Hat Linux so I’ve stuck with it since.
For servers I use Debian. Lightweight, widely used, and gets the job done.
I use opensuse with kde and I love it. Have been using it for 2 years now.
For server use at home I use Ubuntu Server and Alma Linux (mostly)
At work it is all RedHat.
OpenSUSE, Tumbleweed on workstations (KDE) and Leap on my server.
Linux Mint with Mate DE.
openSUSE Tumbleweed, it just works for me.
arch
btw
same, its pretty solid for a meme os. For anything else I usually use Debian.
NixOS everywhere (except for one server which I have yet to migrate from Rocky to NixOS)
