Linux Mint

cfp,

I love using Alpine Linux on my server. Super light and quick to start up.

Another vote for openSUSE Tumbleweed

TheFrirish,

I’m enjoying OpenSuse Tumbleweed loving rolling release and stability

dewritochan,

LMDE cuz sometimes i just need dead simple.

Caboose12000,

Nobara, as a gamer first it’s the perfect distro for me

kusivittula,

i wish i had an amd gpu… until then i’m stuck with mint. loved nobara, but it’s a mess with nvidia.

Caboose12000,

I have a GTX 1070 and I’ve had almost no issue on nobara

kariboka,

Wayland?

Caboose12000,

yup

Yerbouti,

Works perfectly with my 2080ti.

kusivittula,

3060ti here, and two critical issues. #1: parts of the UI like taskbar, title bars of random windows and entire windows behind those become unresponsive or black after about 1 hour of use, needs a reboot. #2: suspend pc -> monitor (oled tv) goes to sleep -> no signal when i resume. needs forced reboot. same thing if it automatically suspends. happens on both, official and kde versions, and no amount of googling has helped. i suspect something may be wrong with my card, because even windows had intermittent issues when resuming from sleep, and tons of crashes on nearly all games. curiously though, mint has none of these issues?!

Its… Debian.

joyjoy,

Are there even other (good) distros that aren’t based on debian, fedora, or arch?

AceFuzzLord,

Considering pretty much all of the best distros are based on those three, probably the best you’ll get is trying BSD. I can’t think of a single distro not based on one.of the three that is still maintained.

iopq,

NixOS

Frederic,

LMDE, MX, Ubuntu etc are based on Debian. Mint is based on Ubuntu, so Debian. Chimera/Endeavour are based on Arch, etc.

In the linux world, you have a linux kernel, systemd or init, a bunch of gnu utils, a window system like X or Wayland, whatever DE you want (Xfce, gnome, kde, name it) and a packaging system (apt, yum, pacman), but for me, it’s all the same.

If you want something different, try a BSD distro then? FreeBSD, OpenBSD, GhostBSD, etc

OpenSUSe. Tumbleweed as a rolling bistro is amazingly stable, yast is nice, and it all just works great. Leap for the servers, and things are solid.

Evil_Shrubbery, (edited )

OpenSUSE for me too.

I also switched family & friends to Thimbleweed (since a bit too snappy Ubuntu) & it’s been great.

milicent_bystandr,

I should think so too. A Thimbleweed sounds an excellent plant for an Evil_Shrubbery.

Evil_Shrubbery,

My evil plans have been discovered!!

Regardless the evil plant army must grow. Rolling thimbleweeds are usually our scouts and assassins (rarely kamikaze when on fire, looks cool tho).

What I’m saying is that you better be on the lookout, maybe hide if you see a thimbleweed with a gun or knife.

Dio9sys,

Same. Tumbleweed here. All the benefits of the rpm ecosystem but with less hassle and more updates

milicent_bystandr,

I, too, get my coffee from the rolling bistro.

kalpol,

Loool I’ll leave it

kib48,

not sure if it really counts but I like Universal Blue, specifically using their silverblue-framework image because it already has all the drivers and stuff set up for my Framework laptop

mesamunefire,

Puppy Linux.

RotatingParts,

MX Linux only because I have it on some very old 32 bit laptops and it supports 32 bit. I don’t really know why I keep those laptops around but they are functional.

_e____b,

postmarketOS and UbuntuTouch

atlasraven31,

Custom North Korean linux. Preinstalled missile tracking software.

Penguincoder,

NSA would like to know your location. Enable?

atlasraven31,

You would think Pyongyang but really chilling on a rocking chair in McMullen, Alabama. Population: 10.
