Linux

Fedora, for the “It Just Works”™ experience of an enterprise-supported distro.

Debian is the best

Debian.

Just works, things are made targetting it specifically, able to get latest software if I need it by installing flatpaks.

Can't complain really.

Debain - cuz my production VMs need to run all day, every day.

I've used Mint since I started using Linux, and never had any major issues. I've therefore just stuck with it. I don't always have the time to tinker with my machine if something should break, and Mint usually just works when I need it, while still providing flexibility when I want it (and Timeshift to fix it when I break stuff)

I've hopped distros in the past, chasing the holy grail of "optimization". Turned out I never noticed much difference with using plain Ubuntu. So I'm using that now for years. It works. Lots of people use it, so if I run in a problem, probably someone else already found the solution. And you can alwsys consult the arch wiki to solve Ubuntu problems... 😉

I use primarily Fedora for desktop/dual boot and minimal Rocky for server. I mess with Arch and Manjaro when I'm feeling adventurous.

I use Pop OS! on my daily computer and laptop and Ubuntu on my home server

Kubuntu for me. Ive been an on again off again user of either Ubuntu or kubuntu for over a decade now, but that might have to change here soon. The integration of snap is driving me insane, so I've been looking into arch distros recently

Hanna Montana Linux as my daily driver. Endeavouros for work.

Manjaro for the best 🥰

I used Fedora for a while but now I'm using OpenSUSE and I like it

Switch from Windows to Fedora as my daily driver and for some gaming. Works flawlessly and I love every parts of it. Linux has such cool distros and communities

Alpine is honestly my go to

Pop_OS on the desktop. Still haven't found the fortitude to change the OS on the Asus laptop.

Fedora on an old laptop, piOS on a pi2 and Ubuntu on my newer laptop although I'm planning to change it to Fedora too..after 12 years of Ubuntu and 4 release upgrades in a row my system seems kinda broken and my apt is definetly broken with many sources.list entries that didn't upgrade well.. I don't like having dozens of loopback entries when I do a fdisk command ..it's annoying and looks like it's because of snaps ..also I get every day to update something in snap store but it fails every single time ...so maybe I'll go by Fedora next..Planning to use the new Debian Bookworm to set a server with this old desktop I getting from a friend to self host some services

My laptop is on Manjaro and has been running flawlessly for years ...such a great experience with gnome 40+

My desktop is also on Manjaro, and things could not be more different. No Wayland, no animations in the gnome desktop, visual glitches since the last update ...guess it doesn't play well with Nvidia drivers. Anyone managing something decent with gnome+Nvidia?

Linux Mint for desktops/laptops (Cinnamon if the hardware can handle it, MATE if it's a bit long in the tooth), and Debian for servers.

I've used several distros (yes, even Arch btw) through the years but I just keep finding myself coming back to the Debian-based ones. I guess I just feel most at-home with the way it has things set up, or something.

Right now I'm using PopOs but I'll switch to Opensuse Leap or Fedora. I hope they don't give me any trouble with the Nvidia drivers

Gnu guix

I personally use NixOS (unstable) on my PC and openSUSE Tumbleweed on my laptop (didn't have time to switch it to NixOS).

I also use NixOS on my Pi 4

Linux Mint, it just works

xubuntu. when this install gets too messy i'm probably going to try the minimal edition and install my old openbox or awesome wm configs.

I'm an arch boi through and through

I use Ubuntu latest LTS for all my servers

Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, FreeBSD, Arch. :) I need to learn NixOs or something that is immutable / reproducible at some point.

Ubuntu or kde neon are my go to distros

Switched around in the past but been on Debian with KDE for the past year or so

I use Fedora Kionite. I was using Silverblue previously but Plasma 5.27 got me. I also tend to switch to Arch sometimes to play with tiling window managers.

I started with Kubuntu, then hopped to EndeavourOS and then moved to Fedora KDE. I've been using Fedora KDE since F36 released and have been quite happy with it.

Using Garuda (basically just Arch with some bloat) because I'm 1) too lazy to install Arch myself and 2) on an Nvidia card and Wayland WMs still seem buggy for me. Once (if ever) Wayland is stable on Nvidia I'll probably look for an alternative

Pop_OS on both laptop and desktop, since it has integrated nvidia graphic drivers and handles them without too much hassle. Before switching to Pop_OS I used to use Fedora for many years.

Right now i am using OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. But i am experimenting with NixOS as well. Bdw first comment on lemmy!

Gentoo Linux. I am too particular about my system to use anything else.

Takes a lot of time to set up and get running, but once you have it running it's rock solid.

Arch Linux with KDE Plasma

Had previous experience on Linux Mint way back, then Ubuntu. Had Manjaro with‌ XFCE for a couple of years before moving on to my current one.

Moving on to Arch, btw, wasn't my idea. Someone convinced me to let him have a go at converting my Manjaro installation to Arch. It was an interesting experience, but not one that we would want to go through ever again.

Been using nobara with kde for the last 2-3 months

These days I'm basic and I use Ubuntu.

Servers: Debian Stable no DE

Desktop: Pop OS or Ubuntu

I've used everything from Arch and Gentoo to fedora and Ubuntu. But I found myself enjoying the stability of Debian but hating the lack of newer packages. The latter of which isnt usually a problem when it comes to single purpose servers.

Debian testing w. KDE on the desktop, & stable on my vps

I use Lubuntu 22.04 on my old laptop from 2009. It still shows it's age while surfing the web, but it's surprisingly snappy and usable otherwise.

Fedora all the way. I've been using it for 6-7 years now, I simply love how it is pretty stable, while still being able to have mostly up-to-date software. And I never had any issues during versions upgrades. And I guess that I can also count SteamOS as a distribution that I use thanks to my Steam Deck.

Only used Linux for a couple of months and use Fedora currently. Been through a fair few distros, but think Im gonna stick with Fedora for a while.

I use Arch Linux on my laptop and debian on my desktop. I'm currently working towards setting up a server on my desktop, just need to figure out where to start and what I want in it. I personally love Arch for it's repos as it's all there at my fingertips if I want to download them.

In terms of DE/WM I use qtile on arch and cinnamon on debian. I don't know what I'd do without qtile lol not sure if I'd ever switch it as my main WM.

Mainly running Gentoo, on my desktop, laptop, and even my desktop at work. Though my homelab is mainly Debian, with a small number of AlmaLinux nodes as well.
