Just curious to see what people are up to. I've been using Nixos for a while. It's fabulous and I have absolutely no reason to switch, but part of me is itching to hop to Debian or maybe OpenSUSE. How about you?

I started with Backtrack on a laptop, and I currently have Kali on a preserved USB; with endeavor as a daily driver.

That being said, my current "real" daily drivers in Win10, mostly for gaming - Not because proton doesn't do a hell of a job, it certainly does, but it makes modding single player games more complicated. I will say that is absolutely my fault, I haven't spent enough time to figure it out. But after work, and the wife, and the animals, and the alcoholic BIL who shares the house... I just want to use Vortex to add some simple QOL mods to single player games and play it.

I troubleshoot IT issues all day at work, at the end of the day, I just need it to work. I've hardened and removed as much telemetry type bullshit as I could, but I'm sure some slips out. For my threat model, on this machine, I'm fine with it.

On the aforementioned labtop I boot into Kali for... well, that has a different threat model.

Its all self hosted vulnerable VMs for the specific reason of education, but some activities may fall into a grey area, so better safe than sorry.

Does vortex not work properly on Linux? That's... disappointing
