Fedora Xfce spin here!
Fedora because they keep the packages updated. I could go with Arch, but the amount of updates per day is too high.
Debian and Alpine
Alpine for Docker containers and Debian for general putpose and sometimes also for containers.
Nobara on the Desktop, Pop OS on the Laptop and the Surface (needs a custom kernel though). I'd use Nobara on everything but I am too lazy to switch.
I've been maining endeavouros for a little over a year now. It's oddly easier than any other os I've ever run.
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... 😭
Since 2008 I am an Arch Linux user (multiple PCs and laptops, as well as some Raspberry Pie devices and a "mini PC" used as home server).
I used Ubuntu since initial release in 2004 and before that I used Debian in dual-boot with Windows since around the year 2000. With switching to Ubuntu I completely ditched Windows and never used it on any non work-related machines again.
Fedora, it’s running great on my older ThinkPad
I am using Rocky Linux 9 on my home PC and Ubuntu 22.04 Server on my VPS.
Debian. It works, that's what I care about.
I keep trying different distros, but I keep coming back to Mint. It's just the right mix of user friendly and customisable for me.
I have Linux Mint on my laptop (Windows 10 on my desktop)
Arch, Suse Micro os and Fedora silverblue. I would like to add gentoo but by beard is not long enough.
Kubuntu
"I was a windows user and am trying Linux, but I am not afraid of hiding the fact that i was once a windows user."
Not saying this is bad ofc, just saying this as a joke 🤣
I started with Fedora, then gave a few looks outside, now when I use Linux, it's 99% Ubuntu/Mint 1% Zorin (to show the similarities with Windows and explain how easy can be for an old newbie used to Win)
I recently just set up Mint on a virtual machine. I had the iso image and I knew how it's easy for me to get around, so I did it only to find the program I was looking for isn't what I thought it was. It's kinda my main go to for Linux work on a virtual machine because of how hassle free it tends to be for me.
That VM was made after I made the mistake of making a Liya one but not putting enough memory into the virtual hard disk.
I'm currently waiting to upgrade computers before I make the full jump since I already have everything set up just fine on my desktop, but I'm definitely thinking of starting with Mint for a general easy to use start or going to endeavourOS since I have some experience with that. (That's subject to change if I try more distros on virtual machines and find one I really like...)
Gentoo is my prefered distro.
Linux Mint on Desktop, Arch on my laptop
Mint, yet on my old laptop. Still on Windows on my main PC
The one that works for my use case.
Fedora Workstation
