    I use ArchLinux BTW, because

    1. It’s very minimal, no bloatware
    2. AUR
      3. I feel superior
    3. It just works™*

    We’re an all-linux household.

    • Endeavoros on my gaming desktop
    • Garuda on my Framework laptop
    • Kubuntu on my partner’s Framework laptop
    • Endeavoros on my server. Plus a handful of Pis and appliances.

      As a non technical user that has switched to Ubuntu from Windows, Linux is light years ahead. Any os without a decent package manager like apt or flatpak is unusable for me and that’s without mentioning the ads…

    NixOS, because all of the config in my system is declared in a few files on GitHub and it has a huge package repo.

    Also it has all of the other advantages of a Linux distro, like privacy, speed and customisability.

    I use Arch btw.

    It’s just clean and simple. I’ve never had a problem with reinstalling things, so I love the idea of a bare-bones operating system where I can install what I need and nothing else. I swapped to Manjaro for a while because my last attempt at arch became unstable, but I’ve got a good 8 or so years of Linux under my belt now. I feel much more comfortable maintaining rolling release. Also the AUR is unmatched. I’m spoiled by it.

    Linyx because it doent get in my way unlike windows, and because I like FOSS. Arch linux in particular, but anything is better than windows or macos. (well, not chromeOS)

    I used to use Linux, but Windows just has better support for most apps and drivers so currently Windows 10. I doubt I’ll ever switch to Windows 11. It seems pretty iffy with the lack of customization and ads appearing in the folder menus.

    Ubuntu / Kubuntu.

    I tried Arch (Manjaro) for a while but was totally lost every time it broke down, which it did a lot. Every update felt like a gamble. The AUR is great but I need more stability.

    Currently trying out NixOS, just switched from Gentoo. Interesting experience so far, will see if the switch will be permanent.

    Immutable system, completely separated and well-defined development environments per project, and overall nix is pretty nice.

    Laptop: popos Reason: 2 hours battery on windows, 8-12 hours on popos due to sleep issues on windows and Nvidia GPU not turning off on windows.

    Desktop: Windows, too many apps without relevant replacements.

    Servers: Linux or bsd(depending on vm/reason)

      The meme used to be that Linux’s sleep is broken but now MS Windows has broken sleep. This also happens on my older thinkpad, which is also super sloe with Windows, but fast with Linux (just works™).

    Windows 10 - work PC because I have to + WSL

    Arch - Service laptop - because I hate my free time(just kidding BTW)

    PopOS - personal laptop - because of nvidia and gaming

    Linux Mint - family laptop - because of maintenance and stability

    Ubuntu - Server…well I’m lazy
