Moto G Stylus (2021) user with no screen problems here. My only gripes is Motorolas shitty update policies and lack of custom rom support. Guess I can’t complain for a sub-$200 phone.

Currently been playing around with the Star64 board from the Pine folks. Its definitely not daily driver material yet, but progress is being made every day. There is a lot of functionality and use case for it.

If you love to tinker and not afraid to roll up your sleeve to potentially compile some things here or there, then its potentially for you. Ive been able to get a few distros functional on it (some with graphical environments). The package base in most the distros are a bit lacking, but you do have the ability to cross compile what you need in most cases.

MicroOS user here. Honestly I love the workflow of using distrobox for about everything I need.

Essentially I have distrobox images setup for specific development workflows. I just hop into the one that is suited for the task I'm doing. It automatically sets up icons in the Gnome menu if you don't want to use the cli commands.

Between flatpaks and containers I couldn't be happier with my setup. Combine that with the fact I can potentially trust the underlying OS to not crap the bed via updates (and when it does I can roll back my filesystem snapshots) is a win/win.

My primary driver for the last few months has been OpenSUSE MicroOS (immutable based on Tumbleweed).

From the server perspective majority of my servers ive cutover to OpenSUSE Leap Micro, as most if not all of my workloads are container based. For some of my non-container things i typically land on Debian.

My Pantum P2500W has been seamless across many distros. Its a cheap little laser printer that costs usually sub-$100.

 

Congrats to the Debian team which looks like a fine release that will carry us for the next 5-years. Although I do not directly use Debian anymore its worth calling out that they have been a influence, driver and overall force of nature in the Linux distro ecosystem.

For those who dont know.....all Debian releases are code-named after Toy Story characters. Bookworm being a minor character in Toy Story 3.
