Guys , what linux distro (if you use) you use and why ?

Qubes, because I like its approach.

@saucyatom cool . That's an unique answer . I was expecting the first one to be sayin arch coz its on hyp

@arupam arch can go suck my balls, I got better things to do than to constantly work on keeping my computer usable.

@saucyatom yeah i agree on that . I mean whenever distro question comes arch peeps are at front .
Like yo arch here

Debian. It's stable and compatible with basically everything except bloody wifi.

Like @saucyatom, I also like Qubes' approach. I might go with that one next, or I might try Gentoo; I haven't decided. Maybe even Arch, but probably not. I want to move away from systemd because it's a gigantic pile of crap.

Ubuntu. Only been in this world for a year or so :)

@Root yeah debian is pretty stable . I haven't been on it but i have use ubuntu for quite a bit but i ll move coz snap always got some issues .

@torbuntu yeah i ll try it once . I was planning to do so .

@ScriptCoded same i have been on it since long but i guess i ll move to other because of issues with snap . I ll try some other distros with other package managers.

@torbuntu but your name says you are ubuntu fan 😂

Mint and Arch.

CentOS, because that's the version installed on the servers at work.

i use artix, because arch but without systemd

@GodlikeBlock is it easier to install than arch ?

Artix-OpenRC,
because I somewhat like Arch, but don't want to suck Poetterings dick.

@metamourge I hope that guy gets run over by a bus. Once per component.

Back to Debian since Debian 10. Always used Ubuntu as it was more up to date (I'm one of those people who updates everything to latest/greatest obsessively), but Debian 10 is fine really. Only thing that sometimes is tricky is Tensorflow on my GPU. 50/50 it craps out or works fine on any given startup.

@Root May I point you towards Void Linux? It doesn't use systemd, and other things might interest you as well (e.g. its package manager).

@Jilano I'll look into it 😊

I've recently switched to Pop!_OS (or however it's stylized) for my work OS. I was looking for something Ubuntu-based because most Linux stuff works there without extra tinkering. Pop runs Gnome which I like, but brings nicer theme and improved power management. systemd-boot is also a nice touch.

@M1sf3t Well, if you needed a sign, that was it! Go forth, my son, for I am by your side.

Kubuntu. Stable, Debian based and eyecandy!

I'll be that guy.

I use Arch.

My experience with Arch over the last 2 years have been great. Nothing broke, everything just worked (tm). Sure, you can always live on the edge like @Haxk20 does but that's just silly.

@olback i want to install arch on my lappy but i don't have any Ethernet . I got only wifi but that too has login pages to access Internet idk when i ll be on arch :/

> Mint with Cinnamon [main: lappy, work, pc]

beautiful, stable, snappy, UI self-detects crashes [if any] and suggests a way to recover, loads of packages.

> Mint with xfce4 [netbook]

all of the above, except ui is simpler - atom w/ 2G ram seems a bit stubborn with cinnamon [and mate].

> Ubuntu mate [rpi2/3]

to keep all that's good from ubuntu

> raspbian 10 [rpi4, dashboard]

just because ubuntu mate is not yet ready for rpi4. Can't wait tho!

@netikras whoa you got tons of devices and all with linux dats great

Arch since 2010. Still using the same installation as I can update it little by little when the need arises.

Raspbian, Ubuntu, and Kali

Ubuntu (Workplace + Laptop for Work) - No other Distro is supported so have to stick with it there but I can customize it as much as I want. Most of the used software is only available for Ubuntu or Debian if you don't want to go through much hassle.

Manjaro/Ubuntu/Win10 (Home PC) - Manjaro for that Arch feel, Ubuntu for when I feel like doing work on my pc rather than the laptop and Win 10 for gaming.

@Crowns ohh that's cool you are using a lot of oses. Btw which one do you prefer on laptop ubuntu or manjaro

Elementary OS, mostly because if it's feel and consistency across applications, plus the mini app ecosystem is bloody amazing

@lxmcf i am waiting for it to come with Nvidia proprietary drivers included . Like ubuntu 19.10 .

Ubuntu, fedora, RHEL.
Always has worked out of the box, delivers what's necessary, job

@arupam I would say Ubuntu at the moment. Haven't worked so much with Manjaro and I am more familiar with Ubuntu because I work with it every day an I feel more productive using it. But this is all personal preference.

@Crowns yeah even i am more family with debian based ones than arch but cz of snap issues m leaving it

Manjaro because thats what was on the pendrive when i bought my laptop

Debian for me, it just works and i'm used to it.

Mint with Mate
I first tried Solus but it wasn't fast enough on my old laptop
