I’d like to settle on a distro, but none of them seem to click for me. I want stability more than anything, but I also value having the latest updates (I know, kind of incompatible).
I have tested Pop!_Os, Arch Linux, Fedora, Mint and Ubuntu. Arch and Pop being the two that I enjoyed the most and seemed the most stable all along… I am somewhat interested in testing NixOS although the learning curve seems a bit steep and it’s holding me back a bit.
What are you using as your daily drive? Would you recommend it to another user? Why? Why not?
@pluja You’ll be happiest using whatever you’re comfortable maintaining/troubleshooting. I’ve spent ~20 years playing with many different distros for one reason or another and the only one I can’t stay away from is #gentoo. As with most things, everyone’s got different tastes, that’s the great thing about having so much choice.
Nobody’s reason for “the best” distro is gonna be the right one for you. You’ll know what’s right for you because it’s the one you always want to use more than any other.
I’ve been itching to try Gentoo again after being away for many years. I remember setting up portage overlays to get Wine running CS 1.6 back in the day. I had done a stage1 install one time for the hell of it and it was faster than it ever was on Windows. I’ve been wanting to chase that sweet performance… funrollloops or something. Haha
@notfromhere It’s only gotten better.
