Ubuntu is my favourite, stable and popular. I use Ubuntu gnome because I like gnome 3. Arch has the best package manager and AUR, but you also might get tons of exotic problems without a clear fix. I wish there was a Ubuntu with gnome 3 and pacman and AUR.

Last time i checked this wasn't /b/.
Come on anons, give me a REASON to install your distros.

I've googled them, not impressed so far.
But i know for a fact that when you give recommendations to someone you also give a reason why.

So stop being a fat redneck and actually say why 'x' / 'y' distro is better.

>>51733667

I'm asking what people think about certain distros and why theirs is better than mine. Anon please.

>So stop being a fat redneck and actually say why 'x' / 'y' distro is better.
No distro is better than any other
Pick the one that has the features that appeal to you
Most distro websites have this thing called an "about" page that tells you what the features are and what makes it different than other distros

Because a fresh arch install leaves you to fend for yourself, it's a great learning experience. I'm learning a lot and getting familiar with the system and I really like it. Because no packages were installed by default I was able to install only compatible packages.

I took notes especially on the commands I was executing and why they did what they did in order to get a better understanding. I can't wait to have it looking nice and rice and have all of the functionality I need.

I recommend it OP. I'm sure gentoo is also a decent operating system.

pros - you can install exactly what you want
cons - you'll have no hope of making it usable
