Not sure why people are downvoting this person. They aren't wrong that Linux enthusiast threads can make it scary for new users to try Linux out. Unfortunately, I did want to see what Linux enthusiasts are running and why they picked it, which is why I made this thread.
If you are a new user trying to get into Linux, I wouldn't recommend some suggestions in this thread as advice for picking a distro. When I was getting into Linux, I attempted to go straight into DWM/arch because another Linux enthusiast thread said it was great. Needless to say, I had a terrible time.
It doesn't actually matter distro what you pick, so long as you have fun with it and it is useable! :)
I'm surprised by how many people are rocking opensuse in this thread. What made you go with opensuse?
What's fedora like to use? I dont see it mentioned as much as Debian or Arch.
I tried nix actually. Personally, I think it would make a great server os, but I do not enjoy it as a daily driver. I didn't like the fact that I was forced to install everything through nix and couldn't compile software from source.
Does artix only boot without systemd or is it completely systemd-less? If it is systemd-less, how do services like docker work with that?
Such a shame they only research cs and teach new cs students.
Why wrap a CLI tool in a docker container? Wouldn't it be simpler to directly compile nyancat to multiple architectures if the goal is to make it run on all platforms?
Source?
I've tried nix and its just not it. Its got cool ideas tho!
Isn't that a usa flag hanging into frame. Why would a store in Turkey have the usa flag.
