Ubuntu 2204 with normal Gnome on a Thinkpad T14, used for both work and personal stuff. Been eyeing Fedora Silverblue for a while…
For gaming I use GeforceNow on that same laptop.
Ubuntu 2204
OMG! What's it like‽ Did Linux become a mainstream desktop by then?
How'd you smuggle it back in time? And no: It doesn't surprise me in the slightest that Linux maintained backwards compatibility for the ancient hardware we're all running for that long 👍
Dude I love you. ❤️
I used ChronoBox, a deravitive of https://distrobox.it/ to scp the source back to 2024.
And yes, we’re pretty sure 2204 is the gonna be the year of linux desktop!!!
Linux or ChromeOS most often. I keep one older windows 10 laptop around for specific software that won't run on anything else. I don't have to use it very often these days but when I do need it it's always for something important that can't run on any other OS.
I moved my parents to ChromeOS a couple of years ago, I use Linux on my work laptop and on my personal laptop as well.
openSUSE Tumbleweed
Windows 10 on the HTPC, dual boot to 7 when I need to rip VHS etc.
Windows 10 on main computer as I need google drive sync, visual basic for excel, stream what you hear and Playit Live for broadcasting.
OpenSUSE Tumbleweed!
MX Linux, since ~8 years
Pop_OS for the main PC, Ubuntu for the laptop and Debian for all the servers (lots of pis). There are 2 PCs left that run windows 10, one is the media rig and the other was an AMD APU that lived in a briefcase as part of a "totally not laptop" thing I built. Its a slow process to fully migrate away from windows, but so far im managing.
Right now I'm using Windows 11 but I will most certainly migrate to Fedora in the future.
Edit: I already use Fedora Server on my homeserver.
Windows 10 for now. When they EoL it I'll switch to a Linux distro. Not sure what yet. I really like PopOS on my Surface because the gnome interface works well, but I think I'll go with something built with KDE for my desktop
Seven systems in my house -
3 Windows 10 - One my gaming/workstation rig, my living room HTPC, and a Dell XPS 13 1 Ubuntu - Rig I cobbled together from older parts for player 2. 2 SteamOS - They're Steam Decks after all... 1 Windows 11 - Work computer. I use the XPS if I can avoid it.
My daily rn is a laptop running Win 10.
I have the parts for a new rig, I'm thinking of running Mint on that.
I recently switched from Windows 10 to Nobara Linux and it's amazing, right now I'm playing gta 4 which only required some tinkering to work without issues. Highly recommended
Win10 on my gaming rig for compatibility and because I'm comfortable with the usage of Windows. Arch Linux with docker containers on the ol' server
Fedora and Fedora Server for my server.
I used to dual boot windows but after the 4th time it nuked my boot partition, I deleted it and did a fresh install. I really only used it to play one non linux game which was Halo Infinite, which was not really that fun tbh.
Manjaro GNOME
Fedora on my desktop and Linux Mint Debian on my laptop.
There's been some ups and downs with Fedora, but nothing too serious at the end of the day and I do quite like it. LMDE has been as stable as a rock and I haven't had any issues with it. I don't really use my laptop that often and its mostly just for web browsing/other simple things.
