MX Linux. I can customize and use many obsecure programs really easily.

I've been maining endeavouros for a little over a year now. It's oddly easier than any other os I've ever run.

Debian or CentOS. But I do server stuff.

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 have Linux Mint on my laptop (Windows 10 on my desktop)

[โ€“] CWSmith@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Gentoo is my prefered distro.

[โ€“] 18107@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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.

Fedora for me, what I started on. Want to try Slackware though.

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...)

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)

[โ€“] swagmessiah@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Linux Mint on Desktop, Arch on my laptop

[โ€“] Hielo@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago
