Ubuntu Server for my home-lab. Fedora for my workstation (dual-booted with Windows, as work requires Windows or Mac, and Microsoft Flight Simulator only runs on Windows.

We should definitely not war on this - all linux is good linux.

I love Kubuntu. I have had to go back to Windows for some very specific gaming situations, but once Linux gets more support and drivers I will switch right back.

Puppy Linux on my already-not-fast-2011 laptop. Many thanks to the Devs on keeping my machine alive! True miracle makers!

Nix OS, because I use both a laptop and a desktop constantly, so having a reproducible environment is key

I've settled on Manjaro with KDE on my current laptop. On my next one, I'll probably move to plain Arch. Alpine is quite cool as well.

Fedora with KDE!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Arch BTW for my personal machine and Debian for my server

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Arch for personal and Alma Linux on my servers, but have been playing with the thought of NixOS for a while. With the new Red Head changes though I think I'll migrate my servers to NixOS soon. Maybe my personal setup will follow after that.

As a long term windows users, I recently switched to kubuntu and I’m loving the kde plasma desktop. I like the look and feel of windows but not the telemetry so kubuntu really is the best of both for me.

EndeavourOS (Arch-based btw)

Endevour OS, with Hyprland WM

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Arch, or, well, EndeavourOS to be exact. Have it on both my Desktop and Laptop. It + XFCE cured my distrohoping

Only really ever used Ubuntu, I've tried a small handful of others but I find I have less issues with Ubuntu so I keep going back to it.

Ubuntu studio for it's real time kernel and music software. Connecting a MIDI controller is a pain and I only ever did music stuff few times with it. Now I use it for anything but music.

My other computer has just plain ubuntu.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Using Fedora 38 right now. Good stuff

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Favorite? Arch. However I am using Ubuntu on all my server systems. Currently don’t have any desktop Linux systems.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Gentoo on my desktop and Mint on my work laptop. At work I just need everything to work, so I don't want to have to deal with some build related issues.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Ubuntu 22.10

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Xubuntu 22.04.

Pinebook pro has manjaro will be going slackware once i order the nvme adapter to install it there.

Arch. Super happy with it. Been running it on all computers for a decade or so.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I'm starting in the Linux world, so, my distro is Linux Mint Cinnamon.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Arch. I've been running it on my laptop for the last 3 years, and I've only switched my gaming PC from Windows in the last couple of months. Really impressed with how much Proton has improved since the Steam Deck has come out.

Moved from Ubuntu as I was having issues with the WiFi drivers on my laptop, and both my systems have been rock solid ever since.
