Arch & Windows 10 on my desktop, OpenSuse Tumbleweed on the laptop.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Currently I'm dual booting, mainly Arch for the most part and Windows 10 for my games.

I can't use proton for most of my games since all of them are latency sensitive (rhythm games).

Arch Linux

Everything else just sucks (haven't tried LFS, NixOS and Gentoo. But for sure I kinda hate Debian and Fedora based distros as they kinda suck and I mostly hate Microsoft based Operating Systems as they suck the most)

change my mind.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

There are distros that I like but dont use because of the lack of convinience like Void Linux which is a great distro but doesn't have AUR.

Windows 10 at home desktop, windows 11 laptop and work desktop. Frankly I'd switch to Linux but lots of stuff didn't work on it last I checked a year ago. Wayland seems to be messing with Nvidia and kde. Last Fedora release bricked on boot of the live usb. One day Linux will be ready. I like it on my steam deck and phone. It's great for embedded systems with limited hardware differences and a focused company supporting it's development. FOSS software suites really needs an organization behind it to be successful.

Kubuntu, but strongly considering Pop OS.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Windows because of work and most of my steam games ran like crap on kubuntu with proton making them unplayable

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Ubuntu for personal main laptop/desktop/servers.

For work Mac OS because they made me choose between Windows or Mac.

Grub roulette between Ubuntu studio 23 something, nixos, and ancient Ubuntu studio

Windows 11, because it was preinstalled and i just surf the web and stream from Netflix, Disney, Prime etc.

I'm generally running a Linux distribution on my computer, as for which one - well I have a tendency to distro hop around quite a bit. As of yesterday I'm on Fedora Kinoite (though I still have my Arch partition around in case I feel I need to go exit/go back) and it has been pretty smooth thus far. I have regular Fedora KDE Workstation installed on my old Macbook Pro as well, so it makes sense I suppose!

I also have a Windows partition for when I want to play a game that either doesn't work on Linux at all (cough Destiny 2...) or doesn't work as well on Linux, at some point I'd like to completely erase it though.

I wish GeForce Now worked better on Linux as I'd just use that otherwise. But for some reason, every time I've tried a game streaming service on Linux (GFN, Stadia, Luna, even Shadow PC) it has always felt like it was performing worse than when I ran it in Windows (just to make sure there were no issues with say my network).

Mobile-wise I just use stock ("Google'd" - yes, I know...) Android on my Pixel. On my servers I tend to use RHEL based distros, but with the recent news about RedHat's shenanigans I'm wondering if I should be regretting my choice now, but I guess we'll see.

Hackintosh Mojave and Win10(just gaming) for my desktop and Linux Mint on my laptop(MBP 2012). Probably going to switch to Linux instead of Mojave for the desktop soon though. I've stayed far of away of "eco systems" and don't have any workflow that doesn't use open formats, so I'm very platform agonist.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Linux Mint with Cinnamon and XFCE. I also own a Mac (actually its my company computer), but i keep it for Power Point and Microsoft Office. My company is ok for me to work with my personal Linux computer, as long as i show them proof it's encrypted. Nice guys.

Win10 for gaming and Manjaro for working.

I want to stop usibg Windows but I haven't made the move yet. I probly will when Win10 gets EOL.

Garuda linux has been my goto on my personal computer and laptop for about 3 years now, basically since it was released on my work machine i use windows unfortunatly.

on my two little media servers, i run arch inside proxmox continers.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Windows 11

Testing out Pop OS though and if it is not a pain in the butt, I'll be switching over to it.

Win10, but I swear if it asks me to try out Office 365 one more time, I am putting some Linux distro on there and not going back (except I sometimes need Windows due to work requirements).
