Yeah.. It is the Windows that finally pushed me the fastest to install Linux. I was very comfortable with Debian servers as part of my work, but never managed to switch my daily driver. Two weeks ago that happened. Peace..

Debian servers... But what direction did you go for your daily driver? There is no wrong answer, but I like hearing how people migrate over.

I was the same as you, btw, started with Debian servers be it an Apache Cloudstack hypervisor, or k8s host.

But because I decided to go with a tiling Windows manager, somehow I ended up down the hyprland rabbit hole on Arch.

So I haven't felt the need to go with a tiling compositors. I already use multiple munitors, and kind of have designated spots for the apps I use.

I love stability and don't want any surprises after Windows made enough surprises. So decided to go with Debian Trixie, and KDE.

But I use Arch in my spare laptop, btw. EndeavorOS where I experiment some stuff. Maybe down the line I will give hyprland a try on my spare first.

EndeavorOS... I've been wanting to try that... Although I heard some good things about CachyOS and need to try that one first.

That said if you're on the hyprland journey, you may look at Omarchy, it is basically Arch with hyprland preconfigured. Not a huge deal, but simple for a test.

Isn't the developer of Omarchy a right-wing conspiracy theorist?

[–] one_knight_scripting@lemmy.world 1 points 17 minutes ago

It's made by DHH, the Creator of Ruby on rails... I can't tell you if he is a right wing conspiracy theorist because I simply haven't done the research.
