Best Distro (lemmy.wtf)
submitted 2 weeks ago by hpS95t@lemmy.wtf to c/linux@lemmy.ml

I'm very curious of which distro users loves the most that they have it on their daily hardware?

Tumbleweed was my favourite for years. I’m not currently using it, but I’ll always have a fondness for it.

Aeon btw. Immutable, rolling, no bs. Everything in Flatlaks or Distrobox is really a killer combo imo.

Also only very little software comes preinstalled which does not apply to Silverblue for example if I remember correctly.

I switched to Zorin OS (from Windows) at the beginning of this year and never looked back. Great for newbies.

Manjaro for my laptop, Mint for my HTPC, and Debian for my servers.

I can't define one favorite distro. I change my daily driver sometimes but it's always something Arch based, even though I think OpenSUSE Tumbleweed is the ultimately best distro/base.

Arch (cachyos) on my desktop, Debian on my server.

Doesn’t really get any better than those two in my opinion

I use Bunsenlabs and like it a lot

Really depends on what you do and value. I use lots of kde software, so kde distros are my go to. then one big diffrence between distros is how they get updated. do you want the latest updates asap on the costs of stability, or do you want an effing never crashing distro but lag behind in updates a few months/years, or a middleground.

These are the two points i considered when i choose.

It’s alway weird to me that even though Ubuntu has the largest Linux desktop market share, no one admits to using it.

Anyway, I use Ubuntu because I was doing a lot of ROS development when I last built a machine, and getting ROS running properly on other distros can be a pain.

Screw distros, just use Arch

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
