OpenSUSE Tumbleweed for my gaming PC and laptop.
On my server I run Debian oldstable until I find the time and energy to upgrade to stable. On my homeserver I run Ubuntu. Probably the latest LTS. Started out as Medibuntu to host a MythTV backend. But we haven't watched TV in a long time so that's not used at the moment.
Arch BTW for my personal machine and Debian for my server
Pop_OS on my laptop
Gentoo!
Even started a community with a whopping 16 subscribers and almost no posts! [email protected].
Fedora
Main computer: Arch (BTW) because I am a WM user (awesomewm) and AL has no bloat to remove. Also because of the AUR.
- main server is a gentoo beast. I chose gentoo because systems was actually causing some problems and reporting a "degraded" status. OpenRC is really nice after years of systemd :-)
- second server, used for backups: NixOS, for no particular reason. I might install Debian 12 on it one day.
Arch and it's variants, depending on when I feel like reinstalling again, currently testing the waters with EndeavourOS
I'm very happy with Arch. Before that I was using Mint.
Switched my 15 yo macbook to Xubuntu. Now it works much better than vanilla Ubuntu.
NixOS on two boxes (starting to deep dive big into flakes to try to automate how the separate devices are configured and apps installed, itβs pretty slick if you ever need to reload the PCs). I have endeavorOS for an AI test box since it was easier to get an arch based distro to work with the complicated install chain of Cuda and Python dependency hell. I have Fedora on an PC my wife uses with Budgie. I have a Debian box for my 3d printer controlling. I may move something back to Solus once they release their new ISO, I miss it. Iβd probably end up installing nixpkgs on it so I donβt loose too much functionality/package availability.
I've been running Fedora Silverblue by way of Universal Blue. ublue.it.
I use windows on my main desktop.
I used to use arch btw till the repair guy took my arch lappy and ghosted me :(
MX Linux. I can customize and use many obsecure programs really easily.
Arch as a daily driver, Debian for my girlfriend and the self hosted stuff, Raspbian for the PiHole
Debian or CentOS. But I do server stuff.
Debian and Alpine
Alpine for Docker containers and Debian for general putpose and sometimes also for containers.
Arch and Debian. In the future Iβll probably move to something without systemd, but for now this is what I use. I donβt understand why so many people use Ubuntu and even fedora now with this REHL controversy. Why would choose to use a corporate distro when others are also just as good? Doesnβt that negate the purpose of using linux and free software in the first place? (This applies to popos, linux mint Ubuntu, and all those other Ubuntu OSes)
when others are just as good
The one that works for my use case.
Mint, yet on my old laptop. Still on Windows on my main PC
