What Linux distribution or distributions do you personally use?

I myself am a daily Void user. I used to use Devuan, but wanted to try rolling release and ended up loving Void!

    Debian. Several reasons:

    • It’s trustworthy.
    • It’s not going anywhere. Debian existed when I was a kid and it’ll probably still exist when I draw my last breath.
    • I know how to use it, since, once again, I’ve been using it since I was a kid.
    • It has all the desktop environments.
    • It fully supports systemd. I do not miss the unreliability, slowness, and complexity of what came before that. (Normally I wouldn’t mention this, but your former distro of choice exists solely for the purpose of not having systemd, so it’s relevant this time.)

      The thought that Debian will continue into the future feels comforting. How cool it would be if in 5000AD kids on Mars or Europa are running Debian 100?

    I use Debian with a patched version of motif window manager. The 90s never ended:

    OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on my laptop, Debian on my server and SteamOS on the Steam Deck.

    I’m a opensuse tumbleweed user on my desktop and laptop. I also have an ubuntu home server.

    I really like tumbleweed, but I have been thinking of switching to an immutable distro like guix or nix. I’ve tried guix several times and found it pretty good, but never stick with it due to its lack of KDE plasma support. Maybe I should give nix a try.

    Fedora on the desktop. I got my start on Red Hat Linux so I’ve stuck with it since.

    For servers I use Debian. Lightweight, widely used, and gets the job done.

    Ubuntu or Kubuntu. Long are gone the days where I used to tinker with different Linux flavors.

    Fortunately, I can afford powerful enough systems so I do not have to be worried about optimizing every single aspect of the OS.

    I want things just to work out of the box. I am aware that this applies to more distros than Ubuntu, but I just do not have the time and energy anymore.

    Just Ubuntu. I have tried plenty of others but Ubuntu just seems to tick most boxes for me.

    EDIT: I am looking forward to the new Pop! when it comes out, I will surely give it a try, No idea if I will switch then though.
