Fedora Silverblue. But since Fedora aims to include telemetry (although in a reasonable way) by version 40, I'll switch soon to something else. I feel it might be time to give BSD an honest attempt.

Endeavour OS

Currently Arch with KDE, switched recently from Gnome. Probably gonna swap to something a little more basic for the desktop environment, it's pretty but in the words of Peter Griffin, "It insists on itself"

Manjaro

I use arch btw. I am waiting for vanilla os v2 for my laptop though, I think it would be great for a device which I want to "just work". Rn it has Ubuntu with some dell repos which have not been updated since Ubuntu 20.

MacOS. Looks like there's tens of us on Lemmy. Tens!

Linux Mint with KDE Plasma.

Ubuntu. I've used Windows since v1 (yeah I'm an oldie), played with Linux on raspberry pi's etc. but had to use Ubuntu when I joined a digital team and over time switched back to windows less and less to now it's just for odd gaming.

Gentoo on my desktop, and Fedora on my laptop.

Laptop is an m1 Air. I needed a new laptop and I wanted the System76 lemur pro but it was during the pandemic /chip shortage and I couldn't wait. It was my first apple product and Ive been pleasantly surprised. Iterm2 is fantastic and brew is one of the best package managers I've seen. The apple silicon is incredible and I think the ML cores are something people are sleeping on. They do ML tasks faster than my Nvidia GPUs by a good margin. And unified memory means, if you spec it right, you can have access to tons of ram for ml or GPU tasks.

My desktop has been Pop for 3 years or so. All the games I play work flawlessly and are getting even better as proton gets more love.

Pop is the perfect balance of everything. Cosmic is great, their kernel is very recent, they have the latest gfx card drivers, apt flatpaks means you have access to everything you'd need and it's rock solid stable. The upgrades have been flawless and their docs are incredibly useful.

I have windows lingering on a drive for dual boot but I haven't logged in to that other than to run updates in 1-2 years.

Linux Mint. Never needed anything else, and hopefully it'll stay this way..

On my main computer I use Arch. My laptop is a MacBook, so that one runs macOS.

Heavy gamer here. My main Distro is EndeavourOS, came from Linux Mint months ago. My homelab runs on Ubuntu Server.

Linux openSUSE

Linux Mint with gnome desktop

Ubuntu Server for my self-hosted cloud service

Fedora Workstation. Everything just works out of the box, even AAC codec with Bose headphone.

Win 11 because of games, music production and other windows-only tools (TIHI). Some flavor of Debian everywhere else.

Linux (Arch with KDE Plasma)

Windows 10. No idea why anyone is using Win11.

I've tried Linux every few years for the last few decades and it's never been at a point where I can switch. I am in the process of trying again, however.

Started today trying to dual boot it on a Windows laptop that has a boot SSD and data HDD. Tried resizing the HDD and installing Nobara and can't get the machine to boot into Grub (the suggested fix on their site didn't work, possibly because of the two physical drives). Searching for a solution was fruitless and I'm honestly over it already. I want an OS, not a hobby.

The very definition of insanity right here. There is ALWAYS something that doesn't work and I'm not a fucking idiot but I'm not a developer either. Linux fans act like people on Windows have no excuse not to switch but I've been trying since the 90s and Linux just does everything it can to frustrate me. God knows how someone who's not tech savvy is supposed to figure anything out. /rant

Pop_OS!

I've been using windows for years now and I don't think I'll ever switch to another OS, Linux or otherwise.

Windows 10 on my main machine and Lubuntu on my home server

Rocking Endeavour OS right now. It's been working well for me so far.

ArcH, moving to NixOS

Windows 10 primarily due to work requirements. I have a laptop with Xubuntu for personal use.

Currently win10 but am definitely getting outta that ecosystem in favor of a Linux distro like Linux Mint next upgrade. If not mint, then I don't know.

I have dual boot Manjaro/Windows, but honestly I haven't used the windows partition in two years except for the very occasional moment I need to check if a document format is alright to send to someone, or anyone else not familiar with Linux needs to do something.

Linux. Pop!_OS

Debian Linux (stable)

MacOS with a tiling window manager for work, Win10 on PC for gaming and Linux on all servers. I would run Linux for work if Office, Adobe and esp. Outlook ran on it, MacOS with Yabai + SKHD is the closest I can get to a Linux experience while still being functional for work.

Windows 11 because I'm too lazy to try and figure out how to run applicationa/games on a Linux based OS.

Dual boot NixOS for productivity and Windows for games. I do also have a macbook that I rarely use.

Windows 11. I don't especially like Windows 11 but dev and gaming is pretty great on Windows. Visual Studio is pretty important for me too.

Fedora, pretty much everything I want from a Linux distro and desktop OS, fits my needs perfectly and what I would recommend most people.

I use Garuda Gnome Linux. It's setup nearly how I would set up an arch install from scratch, just working out of the box. I've done a lot of distro hopping in the past year, but I keep going back to Garuda.

Windows 10 Home

As a webdev, I'm loving Win11 with WSL2. The new Terminal is great and Powertools make organizing windows on my ultrawide easy. I've had to use exclusively Macs for a while for my last company and was not really a fan.

I duel boot. I use Mint 99% of the time & Win10 for that 1% of software/games I can't get working.

My main gaming PC is Windows 10. Other devices have varying flavors of Ubuntu Linux.

NetBSD :)

linux

Kubuntu FTW

Windows 11

Windows 10

EndeavourOS on my desktop and Pop!_OS on my laptop (it's a System76 laptop).

Manjaro Linux, also for my gaming. Booted up my secondary Windows drive yesterday on my main computer, just to update it.
