     @itsfoss I am a fedora user. I made the decision based on how many redhat emloyees were in the contributors credits for the software I using. I even volunteered with them for a while as an ambassador. It was a very cool experience.

     @itsfoss tried plenty over the years, but at present really liking RebornOS for the arch + gui base and rolling release (manjaro is good but the delay in updates is annoying)

     @itsfoss Arch Linux because,
     - It comes simple and clean
     - Every package can be found on AUR
     - It has Arch Wiki, the bible of GNU/Linux
     - Allows you to say "i use arch btw"

     My favorite distro for the past 3+ years is Garuda. I use the KDE and Qtile editions. Theys made a lot of useful suite of tools and helped with migration to KDE 6 (Wayland part of it does not work though). I would move to a wayland based dynamic tiling WM, but Hyprland dows not want to work for one of my apps and currently there are no other good choices, plus what I am reading about the lead developer and their community isn't good.

     @itsfoss manjaro kde, because it just feels right and Arch is too hardcore for me

     @itsfoss i picked ubuntu 9.04 for a project because it was there.

     i still use ubuntu, now as a daily driver for work and play. my wife uses ubuntu on her PC. my kids use it.

     every now and then i dabble with debian, and i keep virt-manager installed to try things out, like kde neon for kde plasma 6 before it was fully baked, and nixos, which intrigues/confuses me.

     @itsfoss openSUSE. I chose it because I wanted to challenge myself with a distro that is a little off the beaten path. I stay with it because it is the most stable distro I've ever used. :opensuse:

     • NixOS

     @itsfoss I’ve been using Arch for quite some time, mainly due to how customizable it is and because of the AUR.
     But recently, @nixos_org is growing on me more and more, and I even use #nix more and more outside #nixos too. My next desktop will run exclusively on NixOS, one of my laptops already does!
