manjaro.

I daily drive Fedora, but I’ve used Arch, OpenSUSE, Debian, and more. Once you get used to how Linux works, distro doesn’t really matter that much aside from edge case distros that operate totally differently like Nix. I chose Fedora because I like the dnf package manager.

The only distro I don’t like is Ubuntu. I had to setup a Linux VM at work so I figured Ubuntu would be a good choice for that. Firefox is painfully slow to open because of Snap, so I uninstall it and run “apt install firefox” which Ubuntu overrides and installs the Snap again.

Fuck. That. Deleted the VM and installed Debian instead.

NixOS… for now. I was on Fedora and was looking for something new. Thought I’d try these new „immutable” distros. Then realised I didn’t know enough about normal ones yet, so I switched to Arch instead. Plus, Nix’ docs are horrendous imo

Opensuse. Did absolutely nothing wrong but I just didn’t vibe with it. Went to fedora and I vibe hard with it

Void, and I really wanted to like it on account of not relying on systemd, but its package repos are too barren for me.

Like, Void’s repos are even more barren than EL’s stock repos before you add RPMFusion and EPEL among other third-party repos into it, and its AUR equivalent don’t help matters.

And Void’s musl port is even more limited than the glibc version because it doesn’t support multilib, so you can’t have Steam or WINE on Void musl, for example, while you could on the glibc version that supports multilib.
