Windows 10 at home desktop, windows 11 laptop and work desktop. Frankly I'd switch to Linux but lots of stuff didn't work on it last I checked a year ago. Wayland seems to be messing with Nvidia and kde. Last Fedora release bricked on boot of the live usb. One day Linux will be ready. I like it on my steam deck and phone. It's great for embedded systems with limited hardware differences and a focused company supporting it's development. FOSS software suites really needs an organization behind it to be successful.
Windows and WSL with Ubuntu.
Kubuntu 22.04, while my home server is Debian 12.
Void Linux
Arch Linux
Everything else just sucks (haven't tried LFS, NixOS and Gentoo. But for sure I kinda hate Debian and Fedora based distros as they kinda suck and I mostly hate Microsoft based Operating Systems as they suck the most)
change my mind.
There are distros that I like but dont use because of the lack of convinience like Void Linux which is a great distro but doesn't have AUR.
work and gaming Windows laptop macOS
macOS
Ubuntu for quite a few years but I'm going back to Debian next.
Primary PC, runs windows 10. I have lots of various software development related programs which just works here. They don't work as well on linux.
All of my servers (Except blue iris), are running linux. Mostly ubuntu.
The other various gaming PCs around the house are running Ubuntu too. (Kubuntu to be more specific)
Arch & Windows 10 on my desktop, OpenSuse Tumbleweed on the laptop.
Btw I use arch. Actually Void Linux with bspwm, but I wanted too say it one time. And windows on the gaming machine.
Windows 11 unfortunately. I haven't found a suitable way to jump to Linux.
Currently I'm dual booting, mainly Arch for the most part and Windows 10 for my games.
I can't use proton for most of my games since all of them are latency sensitive (rhythm games).
Arch right now. Probably going to give NixOS a try in the near future though.
Windows 10 on my main (gaming) PC (honestly I would probably upgrade to 11 by now if I didn't need to do a BIOS update), and Ubuntu on my computer in the living room. I would try a different distro, but honestly whenever I need a guide to do something on Linux they're always written with Ubuntu and it's default commands and packages in mind so it's just easier to work with
Fedora Workstation. Used to dual boot with Win11 to solely play Genshin Impact, but it randomly became compatible on Linux so I have no reason to go back. Looking at either Fedora Silverblue, or might mess around with NixOS tomorrow.
macOS Ventura on the Studio and the MBP work machines and Windows 11 Pro on the living room gaming tower.
Main PC is a gaming rig with Windows 10, side PC for work is Linux Mint with a Win10 dual boot partition just in case something fucks up in Linux, but I haven't needed it in a while. I am not upgrading to Win11 for as long as I am able.
Kubuntu 22.04 on my laptop & Ubuntu Mate 22.04 on my desktop/server.
Windows 10. Have proxmox setup with Ubuntu and a few other operating systems.
Fedora and Debian Linux.
Windows. It is the only machine that uses this operating system.
The same as all my other computers: NixOS.
I am lazy and this way they all run exactly the same config.
Mac OS Ventura at work. Win10 at home
I use Unraid as my host OS with a Windows 11 gaming vm. If you say at my computer you would never know it's not native. I can shutdown/reboot windows and it doesn't affect any of my home server applications, including a mastodon instance.
Linux Mint
