Arch Linux. Installed it 4 years ago and haven't had any issues. I tried several other distro's prior but there always seemed to be some annoying bug that would make me look elsewhere.

When I came back to Linux in 2020 as a non-technical user, I got recommended Manjaro by a friend. But I found it has issues and when I reinstalled I just went to Arch directly. I found it not that hard to install and use and it really serves me well. So I've stuck with it.

Hobby: Arch Work: Fedora and RHEL

Im starting to lean towards Fedora, but this RHEL news is very concerning.

Started out using Ubuntu since 6.06, tried out elementary OS for a bit, went back to using vanilla Gnome on ubuntu and have switched over to Fedora a couple of years ago

[–] Tyr3al@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (5 children)

Simple: Arch for desktops and Debian for servers.

Currently Endeavour OS, but I mainly daily drive Fedora, because its the right mix between bleeding edge and stable (stableedge?) for me.

I'm starting in the Linux world, so, my distro is Linux Mint Cinnamon.

[–] deerdelighted@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Gentoo on my desktop and Mint on my work laptop. At work I just need everything to work, so I don't want to have to deal with some build related issues.

Arch. I've been running it on my laptop for the last 3 years, and I've only switched my gaming PC from Windows in the last couple of months. Really impressed with how much Proton has improved since the Steam Deck has come out.

Moved from Ubuntu as I was having issues with the WiFi drivers on my laptop, and both my systems have been rock solid ever since.

Ubuntu 22.10

[–] tom@lmmy.tvdl.dev 2 points 2 years ago

Favorite? Arch. However I am using Ubuntu on all my server systems. Currently don’t have any desktop Linux systems.

[–] Windows2000Srv@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

I'm boring Af, I use Ubuntu with Mate DE.

I would love to switch to Opensuse Tumbleweed, but I need Ubuntu because of some interactive board drivers that are only available for ubuntu... 😭

[–] ehrenschwan@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Arch for personal and Alma Linux on my servers, but have been playing with the thought of NixOS for a while. With the new Red Head changes though I think I'll migrate my servers to NixOS soon. Maybe my personal setup will follow after that.

Been using Linux for the past 10 years and have tried just about every distro. I decided to stop hopping and have been on Fedora for the past year and a half. Fedora has worked great for me and I have no plans on changing it anytime soon. Also should add I use KDE fedora because I can’t stand gnome

[–] sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I have a T420 running Void Linux, another T420 running Mint, a T430 running Arch, and a T16 running EndeavourOS.

[–] butter@midwest.social 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

My T420 runs MX Linux, but I've considered switching to Mint. Hows it run?

Oh it runs great. Mint is so easy and it's basically built for old machines.

[–] MrBubbles96@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Arch, or, well, EndeavourOS to be exact. Have it on both my Desktop and Laptop. It + XFCE cured my distrohoping

[–] ParsnipWitch@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago
[–] stepan@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

EndeavourOS (Arch-based btw)

[–] Trent@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Xubuntu 22.04.

[–] odium@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago

Arch with a Sway wm

[–] Tentaclius@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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

[–] Junkdata@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Main desktop is fedora workstation due to the intel a380 and to get my gpu runnin out the box.

Pinebook pro has manjaro will be going slackware once i order the nvme adapter to install it there.

Old lenovo computer - testing and learning netbsd on it.

Overall im hoping to get good enough to just have slackware for linux and any of the 3 main BSDs on other devices.

Endevour OS, with Hyprland WM

[–] renlok@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Only really ever used Ubuntu, I've tried a small handful of others but I find I have less issues with Ubuntu so I keep going back to it.
