Linux

These days I use Linux Mint for desktops/laptops, and Ubuntu Server for servers.

I am using Arch Linux for more than 10 years.

I run Tumbleweed on my x86_64 machines, Asahi on my M1 macs. I might try to install Gentoo on one machine, tried in the past but my inexperience led to some frustration. Pretty confident I could get it running now and it would be pretty fun to learn!

I currently have four Linux installations:

Worklaptop: Ubuntu 22.04

Personal Laptop: Fedora 38

Home Server : Fedora 38

Raspberrypi: Raspbian

Happy with all really. They all nice and stable.

They are running defaults. So Gnome Desktop, very few changes. I have started always installing Tmux and forcing myself to use that since I often log into a server and that helps a lot with managing multiple tasks and coming back to tasks later. Using it locally is also sweet since switching between windows is nicer with the keyboard in Tmux than in Gnome-terminal.

I really like Endeavor OS. I think it's a great mix of ease of installation whilst still remaining close to Arch. I used to use Manjaro but I'm moving machines away from that as I need to rebuild them.

Pop!_OS because Im a normie lmao

• Debian: home laptop, home PC, work PC
• Ubuntu Server: at work (servers)
• Rocky Linux: at work (servers)

Alpine Linux with I3WM

I love Manjaro when I just want things to work out of the box, but I use EndeavourOS on my main machine for better AUR compatibility. I love how minimal Endeavour is. The few issues I've had (always due to me screwing up updates) have been fixed in minutes with Timeshift + BTRFS snapshots. KDE Plasma always. I love KDE software, and you can customize it for any workflow - I've got my system exactly how I want it for the sort of work I do.

PopOs! On my work laptop and Nobara on my home desktop.

Arch on everything.

I use Manjaro, but I run it like vanilla Arch (for example pacman/yay and not pamac). I find this to be a sweet spot for me - rolling releases are so incredibly nice, and Manjaro being slightly slower than Arch is good from a stability standpoint in my experience.

I use ZFS all over the place, including the root storage pool on my home server, which has overall been a great experience with systemd-boot.

NixOS on everything but my Steam Deck which is running SteamOS.

Fedora. Used to use Arch but it broke and I moved to Fedora, it's a way more polished experience. I like how Fedora is stable but not "stale" like Debian. Want to try Fedora Silverblue as well.

Fedora, ofc. KDE spin in my case. Stable, up to date, no nonsense and well supported, fits well for both my work and personal needs.

I fall firmly in the Ubuntu/derivative camp for the most part. My laptop is on Pop, some of my virtual servers are on Ubuntu. Only exception is UnRAID, which is technically Slackware.

Debian on my gaming desktop and Ubuntu on the family laptop.

I use Debian for my docker servers. I try to use it on the desktop. Was using pop-os, games kept crashing, replace with arch? Archinstall wouldn’t work. Back to windows I guess. Maybe I should try Debian on the desktop since it’s the only one I ever get working properly.

Now I am using fedora, before that I used debian stable.

I used to use Arch but recently switched to Fedora. I need stability now.

I've felt in love woth Debian the moment I used it for the first time

Slackware

I use Pop OS as my daily driver. It's been hectic configuring things to work at times but I'm pretty happy, I have all the games I want to play compatible with it and I don't really need any Windows apps so it works perfectly for me.

Used to use Ubuntu for almost everything, but I switched to Arch for my desktop a few years ago, and love it. Still use Ubuntu for basically all of my servers (personal and work).

SUSE

Gentoo, currently trying to install LFS

I used Manjaro in the past, now I use EndeavourOS and loving it.

A mix of fedora and alma Linux I like all the redhat tools and which one I use depends on if I want new shiny or fewer major upgrades

Long time Kubuntu user.
