What Linux distribution or distributions do you personally use?

I myself am a daily Void user. I used to use Devuan, but wanted to try rolling release and ended up loving Void!

Moved from Arch to Nix and loving it!

I wish Arch could be installed everywhere. My Desktop PC, Laptop and Raspberry PI 4 use Arch Linux while my Server used to run Rocky Linux but is abandoned and my Chromebook Duet 3 uses Debian 12 with KDE. I think I could easily install Arch on it after having my Kernel compiled and working with debian.

The Star64 still needs development to be used.

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on my laptop, Debian on my server and SteamOS on the Steam Deck.

I'm a opensuse tumbleweed user on my desktop and laptop. I also have an ubuntu home server.

I really like tumbleweed, but I have been thinking of switching to an immutable distro like guix or nix. I've tried guix several times and found it pretty good, but never stick with it due to its lack of KDE plasma support. Maybe I should give nix a try.

Debain - cuz my production VMs need to run all day, every day.

Arch on my workstation, Ubuntu on my servers.

My laptop is on Manjaro and has been running flawlessly for years ...such a great experience with gnome 40+

My desktop is also on Manjaro, and things could not be more different. No Wayland, no animations in the gnome desktop, visual glitches since the last update ...guess it doesn't play well with Nvidia drivers. Anyone managing something decent with gnome+Nvidia?

Currently... Slackware on main laptop. Slint (Slackware-based) on mini-pc. MX Linux (fvwm respin), Void, and OpenBSD on old laptop. NsCDE is desktop on all except MX.

I love to see Slackware representation in these threads, easily my favorite distribution of all time.

Arch.

I've done a reasonable amount of distrohopping, but I always come crawling back because I've never found anything that can compete with the AUR.

Debian sid. Used to use stable only.

Arch

I find that bugs in linux programs (and they will happen regardless of distro) are more easily tweaked in systems that do minimal modifications to upstream programs and keep them updated regularly with what the developers release

Also AUR makes it easy to install pretty much anything without having to add ppas, new repo links, etc

Fedora Workstation, I'll probably switch to Fedora Silverblue one day whenever the transition is easier for my setup without having to layer lots of extra packages or mess with the immutable system.

[-] PrettyFlyForAFatGuy@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I used cinnamon/debian for a long time on my desktop and gnome/ubuntu on my laptop. in the last couple years i switched to KDE plasma/manjaro on desktop and gnome/manjaro on laptop

its nice, for the most part and gives me access to the aur

I have a general use server running ubuntu server atm, i'm considering completely redoing that and havent decided on the distro i will use yet. I want to use kubernetes to sandbox its various uses apart and in a redeployable way so whatever works for that

[-] yaniv@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 year ago

Ubuntu LTS, since 08.04.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
