Fedora. Cause it's the distro of choice of my employer and I'm just lazy.

Fedora

I started with Fedora, then gave a few looks outside, now when I use Linux, it's 99% Ubuntu/Mint 1% Zorin (to show the similarities with Windows and explain how easy can be for an old newbie used to Win)

I'm a Trisquel user. Though, I'm thinking of moving to Guix.

I keep trying different distros, but I keep coming back to Mint. It's just the right mix of user friendly and customisable for me.

Kubuntu

Since 2008 I am an Arch Linux user (multiple PCs and laptops, as well as some Raspberry Pie devices and a "mini PC" used as home server).

I used Ubuntu since initial release in 2004 and before that I used Debian in dual-boot with Windows since around the year 2000. With switching to Ubuntu I completely ditched Windows and never used it on any non work-related machines again.

I am using Rocky Linux 9 on my home PC and Ubuntu 22.04 Server on my VPS.

Debian for servers. Darwin for desktop. :)

Arch BTW for my personal machine and Debian for my server

I used arch btw, now I use NixOS btw

void

Debian and Alpine

Alpine for Docker containers and Debian for general putpose and sometimes also for containers.

Fedora Xfce spin here!

Fedora KDE Spin, I like all the options to customize.

MX Linux. I can customize and use many obsecure programs really easily.

I used to run manjaro, but after some problems I decided to cut the middle man, and jumped to arch.
So now I use arch btw.

Debian or CentOS. But I do server stuff.

Arch, Suse Micro os and Fedora silverblue. I would like to add gentoo but by beard is not long enough.

Fedora for me, what I started on. Want to try Slackware though.

I recently just set up Mint on a virtual machine. I had the iso image and I knew how it's easy for me to get around, so I did it only to find the program I was looking for isn't what I thought it was. It's kinda my main go to for Linux work on a virtual machine because of how hassle free it tends to be for me.

That VM was made after I made the mistake of making a Liya one but not putting enough memory into the virtual hard disk.

I'm currently waiting to upgrade computers before I make the full jump since I already have everything set up just fine on my desktop, but I'm definitely thinking of starting with Mint for a general easy to use start or going to endeavourOS since I have some experience with that. (That's subject to change if I try more distros on virtual machines and find one I really like...)

Linux Mint on Desktop, Arch on my laptop

Arch and Debian. In the future I’ll probably move to something without systemd, but for now this is what I use. I don’t understand why so many people use Ubuntu and even fedora now with this REHL controversy. Why would choose to use a corporate distro when others are also just as good? Doesn’t that negate the purpose of using linux and free software in the first place? (This applies to popos, linux mint Ubuntu, and all those other Ubuntu OSes)

Gentoo on my desktop and laptop. I also have an old thinkpad T41 that runs FreeDOS which isn't linux but is still awesome.

My primary computer: (NOT LINUX) Windows 10, I know, shocking. Laptop for programming: It's an old HP Pavilion from 2015. Linux Mint with i3. ThinkPad for fun stuff: Artix Linux. Big ass Cisco servers in my room: openBSD emulation.

Gentoo!

Even started a community with a whopping 16 subscribers and almost no posts! [email protected].

I'm very happy with Arch. Before that I was using Mint.

I am running Ubuntu on my machines and whatever Docker containers if I need some other flavour.

Arch and it's variants, depending on when I feel like reinstalling again, currently testing the waters with EndeavourOS

Main computer: Arch (BTW) because I am a WM user (awesomewm) and AL has no bloat to remove. Also because of the AUR.

Servers:

• main server is a gentoo beast. I chose gentoo because systems was actually causing some problems and reporting a "degraded" status. OpenRC is really nice after years of systemd :-)
• second server, used for backups: NixOS, for no particular reason. I might install Debian 12 on it one day.

Pop_OS on my laptop

NixOS on two boxes (starting to deep dive big into flakes to try to automate how the separate devices are configured and apps installed, it’s pretty slick if you ever need to reload the PCs). I have endeavorOS for an AI test box since it was easier to get an arch based distro to work with the complicated install chain of Cuda and Python dependency hell. I have Fedora on an PC my wife uses with Budgie. I have a Debian box for my 3d printer controlling. I may move something back to Solus once they release their new ISO, I miss it. I’d probably end up installing nixpkgs on it so I don’t loose too much functionality/package availability.

Switched my 15 yo macbook to Xubuntu. Now it works much better than vanilla Ubuntu.
