psudo3408yDebian of I need something stable (server, mom's PC, etc).
Arch for personal use because I got sick of having to maintain packages outside the package manager if I need something resembling recent. It also lets me add thy bloat I want, instead of hacking it away. -
Ubuntu via crouton cuz Chromebook.
I've tried Arch using chroagh but it's no longer being maintained.
Before that I had cycled between Ubuntu, Mint, Arch, and Fedora on a regular PC laptop. Mostly stuck with Ubuntu and Arch because of the communities, support, and documentation. Ubuntu cuz easy, Arch cuz I feel like I have much more customization power from the beginning; everything must be configured. -
I can't keep myself hammered down to one distro. I use a laptop with Win10, Kubuntu, Arch, and I'm working on LFS.
Edit: forgot reasons.
Win10: gaming
Kubuntu: Stable(?) Low-maintenance eye candy
Arch: Tinkering and such -
Tribex678yArch at home, CentOS for production servers, Ubuntu for play-around-with-stuff servers.
-
hrombach1788yArch on my PC, because, b*tch please.
Ubuntu 16.04. LTS on my server because my hosting provider doesn't offer an arch image and wouldn't let me just install my own. Fussy buggers. -
goofle2028yUbuntu because it was an easy first choice, but I'm thinking to try Kubuntu, cause I love Qt and like KDE.
-
Ubuntu 16.04 for desktop Cos it serves me well.
Centos and Ubuntu server on company's servers -
Centos for server unless I'm asked to dontnetframeworkify then I'm stuck with windows server.
Chrome OS on some random cheapass laptop. Windows and Ubuntu on 'the' pc -
willol13898yMint 'cause it works out of the box (except Bluetooth, Bluetooth is a piece of shit) and it's preeeetty!
-
Elementary OS. Even though I've tried many distro's, I just keep going back to eOS. It's beautiful, lightweight and just works.
-
Ubuntu because I needed a simple distro but I might switch to Debian once I get the hang of it.
-
Antergos, because I can get Arch Linux without having to install it.
Fedora, because I wanted another distro to test my projects on.
