So what Linux distribution do you guys use for regular usage,development and stuff..

I'm currently on Linux mint, planing to upgrade to a more PRO distribution for the heck of it...

@mrtnrdl what's the difference between use cases for the two?

I@mrtnrdl also I've been reading stuff about Ubuntu spying data, is that true and is fedora free of privacy problems?

@TheAnimatrix The whole discussion about Ubuntu "spying" was about a pre-installed Unity Lens (a search provider for the application launcher of Ubuntu's standard desktop environment) that provided online results for local searches. Some people called it "spying", because if somebody were to monitor the search queries originating from your computer, they could potentially reconstruct your application launching habits.
This behaviour has since been disabled by default and will die together with Unity.
If you want to use Ubuntu, just install Ubuntu GNOME (GNOME will be the default desktop environment of Ubuntu starting in 2018).

NixOS, never find myself managing packages that properly

CentOS, because it is RHEL, and it just works.

Debian jessie

Ubuntu 16.04

Fedora. Same reasons named before.
It works, you dont have to deal with crashes or broken stuff because if packages or anything. Simply not buggy.

In general companies use RHEL/CentOS.

Startups use Debian/Ubuntu.

And SUSE in U.K.

(General doesn't mean always)

@elgringo can you explain why?

@elgringo thank you for those stats. But why do you think that Start ups use debian/ubuntu while companies use rhel?

@fschndr Because with RHEL, there's someone to sue if something goes wrong. Big corporations love being able to sue other companies for their own problems.

@3141 yes sure

So Fedora dual boot with kali it is

@3141 actually, it's because RHEL has an Enterprise support model, and support contracts, which are required by most corporations. Their business is the enterprise domain.

@iAmNaN That's what I said.
