What distro do you use?
-
@Terryphi I have been using Debian with various desktops. I like switching desktops to keep up with them. I am currently trying out ArcoLinux. I have Knoppix 8.2 on a thumb drive. I just love the freedom of being able to switch between distros and desktops.
-
Linux Mint 19.2 for desktop and development, W10 for desktop and games.
-
Kubuntu for my first KDE
I have always been an XFCE fan but recently, I got stutters and the journey has never been easy.
KDE is finally pinning me into Linux OS -
Manjaro with herbstluftwm and mostly XFCE apps; occasionally I use also KDE.I'm now in the progress of configuring Fedora as my secondary distro (mainly for development) and I plan to use herbstluftwm with LX/XF apps there.

I'm currently running an older model laptop as a replacement for a laptop that broke, while I gather funds for a more suitable replacement. After Linux Mint, which has been my daily driver for years, proved too heavy for the laptop's limited RAM, I've spent the last month putting Q4OS through its paces as a lightweight alternative, having read about it on this very Forum and given it a trial run via VirtualBox.

Linux Mint. I've moved to it from Windows7. And it seems to me that was right decision

Six years ago I posted here that I was using Debian Wheezy, which I used for a few years back then, but since then things have changed. I've been running Ubuntu 16.04 and now 18.04 (soon to become 20.04 in a few months).
The reason was that I got a new laptop in 2015 and wanted to ensure that it fully worked. I could have got Debian Sid for this and tinkered, but felt lazy and wanting to try something else, so went back to Ubuntu (I've never agreed with the snobbery that Ubuntu is for those who can't run Debian...). It worked and I've stayed with it since.
On another laptop, which is quite low end, it has the latest Xubuntu (20.04) on it. Quite impressed with it.

I have Manjaro on laptop and W7 + Linux Mint on desktop. I choose xfce in both cases, because it seems to be fast.

I've got Linux Mint 19.3 dual-booted on a couple of boxes - one 64-bit and one 32-bit, strictly for testing Vivaldi. I use the Cinnamon DE because it's a relatively smooth transition for a habitual Win user such as myself. I'm testing in 32- and 64-bit Win10, 32-bit Win7, and 32- and 64-bit Mint, plus an Android phone, and an Android tablet. Apparently can't make up my mind what I want to use.
-
Mostly dualbooted & distro-hoped since the... dawn of time but after Win10 ridiculous privacy shenanigans = total breach of trust I am permanently on Linux with Manjaro KDE26/04/2022: Back to Arch

EDIT:
Currently using Feren OS an Ubuntu based distro (20.04). Tried the following within the past month:
- Ubuntu Budgie
- Kubuntu
- Ubuntu w/Deepin DE
- Linux Mint Cinnamon
- LMDE
- Fedora
- Deepin Arch
- openSuSE
- Deepin (standard?)
- Cloudready
- FydeOS
- Slax
Has anyone thought of a Chromium OS with Vivaldi as default browser? Or a Vivaldi OS Linux Distro? My experience has been that "ChromeOS" is very fast until you add a Linux VM to run Vivaldi which makes it terribly slow. I would love to see a Vivaldi based distro.
-
Recently switched from Fedora (33) to PCLinuxOS.
-
Solus Budgie
-
Currently Manjaro-Gnome 40.4 and really liking it, came from PoP!-OS, also great.
-
I've now been mainly using Feren OS for at least a good year; and I think I've found my forever home ^^
-
- Linux's mint
- Feren Os
- Fedora

For several years there, Q4OS was my distro of choice. But, last year, I happened across Exe GNU/Linux and have been very happy with it. It, by default, uses the Trinity Desktop Environment, which I've been using for many years now, too.
If anyone is interested, I've done a review and a couple of follow up on Exe on my Vivaldi blog, here.
In the past, my distros of choice included Mandrake/Mandriva, Libranet, ALT-Linux, Zen, and Zorin.
Jan 12, 2022 Update
Decided to go back to my "Linux roots" and have now been running ALT Linux once again. So nice to be back with ALT. Not only is the OS stable and trouble free, but the dev. team is very accessible and responsive, too.

I started experimenting with linux distros around 1998. I ended up dual booting alongside Windows and moved to a full-time, linux only user with the debut of Windows Vista.
I have used many distros over the years, but am a long time Fedora/Gnome user.
-
Ubuntu 20, waiting a little bit before making the jump to 22. Also use Windows when I need to
-
primary: Debian 11
Manjaro 21
Mint 20
Ubuntu 22
