This may start a war in the replies, but let’s see!
I use Arch btw.
Honestly it’s just so good. The installation was a heck of a process the first time but it taught me so much, and no other distro I’ve tried has just worked like this across all my hardware.
Yes, of course you do :) And next week, you’ll be using NixOS :)
What is the fuss about nixos?
Debian always
I recently switched from Arch to Debian. So far am happy with my choice. I had used arch for about 4 years beforehand but I eventually had enough of flaky AUR packages and decided to just build what I need by hand.
My man.
Pop!_OS
See my instance name.
I am using NixOS but it’s… difficult.
I was considering giving NixOS a go. What are you finding difficult about it?
It’s mainly frustrating because the learning curve is steep for no reason. NixOS is not complicated at all in and of itself, but the documentation surrounding it is very, very difficult to make heads or tails of.

How so? I’ve always been interested in trying that one.
I’m using Arch (btw) but I’m running NixOS in a VM to play around & learn it. It’s kind of wild, it’s not like any way I’m used to thinking about an OS at all, so I’m still wrapping my head around it. Super interesting though!
Pop!_OS is what I keep falling back to. It helps that I use a System76 Thelio and a HP Dev One.
Same. I wait patiently for cosmic because I’ve gotten use to the keyboard navigation. And I’ve used Debian-based distros for 20+ years and it feels like home.
Fedora KDE spin. I dunno how to feel about the recent announcement but from what I know, it shouldn’t affect Fedora itself.
Arch btw
Fedora Kinoite 38 (Using uBlue bazzite-desktop as a base)
I run about an equal number of Slackware and FreeBSD boxen.
Xubuntu - back from the days with a slightly slower laptop.
EndeavourOS KDE on my laptop, Arch with KDE on my PC, and AlmaLinux 9.2 on my homeserver. Have used Xubuntu, Ubuntu, Fedora, Manjaro, and Mint in the past.
Tumbleweed
Tumbleweed
Ah, an OpenSuse user!
Really underrated distro. It’s even very good for beginners.
I am a penguin, quack quack. What is a distro? Is that a type of fish?
