yeah having switched to linux recently it's pretty much impossible to go without reddit. sure, superuser and generally linux forums do have a bunch of answers, but a lot are on reddit as well.

I still find most Linux answers on SO.

It’s pretty rare that a search leads me to Reddit, though it does happen on rare occasion.

What distro(s) are you searching for that lead you to Reddit?

Curious what distro’s myself. Though makes me think that there should be a distro suggestion for new Linux here.

Too many top linux answers are gone now and i dont really find reddit very usefull for finding answers to linux problems anymore unless its a brand new problem with alot of people suddenly posting about it.

IDK, I just know I had to visit reddit quite a few times when googling linux stuff. maybe it's because I'm still new and looking for relatively basic stuff

Naw fam, I've been using Linux for years and I still goto Reddit threads for problem solving. I'm not like a guru or anything but I'm not new. I'll try other sources first but I have no problem going to Reddit second.
