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!

    Debian. Several reasons:

    • It’s trustworthy.
    • It’s not going anywhere. Debian existed when I was a kid and it’ll probably still exist when I draw my last breath.
    • I know how to use it, since, once again, I’ve been using it since I was a kid.
    • It has all the desktop environments.
    • It fully supports systemd. I do not miss the unreliability, slowness, and complexity of what came before that. (Normally I wouldn’t mention this, but your former distro of choice exists solely for the purpose of not having systemd, so it’s relevant this time.)

    Manjaro GNOME on my desktop. Still looking into what to install onto my work notebook when I get the new one.

    Arch on desktop and Fedora Silverblue on my laptop. I have a Proxmox server and on this I have VMs with mainly Fedora, Arch and Debian running.

    Fedora Kinoite. I installed it a few months ago and I’m loving it.

    History as far as I remember: Mandriva -> Debian -> Sidux -> Ubuntu -> Fedora -> Kubuntu -> Fedora Kinoite

    Manjaro XFCE after switching from Windows about 5 years ago. The first 3 months were rough and now when I have to use Windows I can’t believe how badly Microsoft had everyone brainwashed into believing what an OS should be like. It’s such a shame that 95% of the population thinks computer == macos || computer == windows

    • Arch with GNOME on my Laptop
    • Arch with KDE on my Desktop (which is currently being replaced by my Laptop)
    • good ol’ Debian on about 25 VMs and LXCs
    • CentOS on one VM that has FreeIPA installed
    • openSUSE on one VM that hosts a Minecraft Server
    • Proxmox as the Hypervisor

    Opensuse tumbleweed on my own computer. Rolling release with snapper is very cool.

    Work machines: some rhel8 machines, some AlmaLinux machines. Local development happens in a Fedora vm, because that’s how most colleagues role. I hope someday my employer enables us to run a linux distro on our work pcs directly, because most of our stuff runs on linux servers and most of us only use windows to launch our fedora vms.

    Servers: Debian Stable no DE

    Desktop: Pop OS or Ubuntu

    I’ve used everything from Arch and Gentoo to fedora and Ubuntu. But I found myself enjoying the stability of Debian but hating the lack of newer packages. The latter of which isnt usually a problem when it comes to single purpose servers.

      Wait what do you mean debian doesn’t have newer packages? I’ve never used it. Do the packages only get updated on a distro update?

        I think so. They get freezed at some time on unstable (I think?). Then, if you need a newer (major version) of a package you need some other package source than the default Debian one to get it.

    • Fedora @home

    • ubuntu @home for my server (eventually switch to fedora server)

    • Ubuntu @work kinda have to stay in the debian/*buntu universe, probably test mint or popos with the next lts

      Fedora

      How is this not more mentioned? There are dozens of us, dozens! I actually switched to RHEL server over Fedora but really only because I didn’t know better at the time.

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