>>51843711
I use Debian Unstable. Packages are plenty up to date though I can't argue with you about stable, it's older than my grandma's closet.
Mint, its the only way to resist Israel.

what
Papyros is so hip, it's not even out yet so only the coolest and hippest kids are into it.
NixOS
Buntibox
>>51843474
I used Manjaro for one year. It was pretty cool at first but bugs quickly made it unusable.
It's unstable software, maybe it will become great later (even though I don't think so) but it's actually unstable.
Arch exists since 2002 and has proven to be more powerful and more stable than other distros (just try to install KDE on a vanilla Ubuntu and let the fun begin).
>>51843972
I install Gentoo Linux on virtual machines when I get bored and you're a fucking moron.
>2015
>not using trisquel
Mcfucking kill yourselves.
>>51845332
>Arch exists since 2002 and has proven to be more powerful and more stable than other distros
Yeah, look at all the people using Arch fucking Linux for anything useful except for their desktop OS
>>51846341
There is no point using Trisquel when you can use Gentoo Linux, unless you're too newbie to use it. But you won't learn to install Gentoo Linux with using Trisquel.
>>51843698
>arch is a meme
That's not how you spell "gentoo" faggot.
>>51843209
She's dead.
>>51843137
As in popular? well, ubuntu as always.
Chakra
>>51843137
Elementary OS is the only distro worth using.
>>51846426
I wasn't talking about server distros like Debian or Red Hat. (If we except FreeBSD, which is so stable it can be used as a server distro)

RebeccaBlackOS. Only (prebuilt) distro with Wayland.
arch is in atm, everyone else is either on fedora or debian, generally speaking
most of these mainstream distros are viable choices, try each out and stick with the one you like the most, it's all personal preference
>>51843137
literally Debian
I'm a Debian user but I recommend Ubuntu Mate to anyone who asks. Why? Because it juzt werks. I honestly don't see the point of taking 3 weeks to do something like installing some software or adding my computer to a home group/LAN. That's for self-loving nerds like me. Normies don't need that, and that's perfectly fine. Ubuntu is the only real alternative against evil (Apple and M$) and it pisses me off when elitist neckbeards push normies away from Lignux just because "HURR DURR HE USES MINT WHAT AN ILLITERATE FAGGOT!!!"
Fuck that.
>>51843137
Oh Mandriva, the memories.
>piece of shit OS, gave me cancer

I have not heard of KATEOS so I will assume it is hip.
>>51843209
I don't wanna talk to no red vibe.

I wish they had this in daily life, I need me like 10 red stickers.

if you want a distro you can put on a resume use centos/redhat or ubuntu
>>51843759

just kek my shit up senpai
CRUX, deepin, reactOS
Elementary OS
>>51843137
hip for normies: ubuntu. mint. other ubuntu variants like xubuntu.
hip for more serious users: debian, fedora
hip for /g/: arch, gentoo
freebsd
>>51843888
I wonder who's behind these trips!
>>51856043
arch is nowhere as hip as gentoo. it's pretty much just a bleeding edge minimal install
>>51856284
arch is actually used by quite a lot of people while gentoo is mainly a /g/ maymay
>>51856297
but that makes it hip for /g/
Gentoo is better imo, but that's probably because I've used it since for over a decade and barely have used arch more than a year.
>>51856310
>but that makes it hip for /g/
yeah, that's why i listed both as hip. arch because it's used, gentoo because it's memed. not that i hate gentoo or anything, it seemed pretty neat when i tried it.
>>51843137
>>51843137

I have no idea if this is a troll but when I get my X61 back from my friend (who borrowed it because her PC broke) I'll try UberStudent on it.
>tfw uni
I've been using ubuntu because it just works. I used arch with xfce for a while and loved it, but then realized I needed to focus on school, not trying to fix things I've broken. Then I played with Qubes OS, a fedora based OS four people who want to go full tinfoil (I was anonymoose those days). Then I played with real fedora. That might still be installed dual boot on my gaming rig actually... Then I used ubuntu with gnome... But then decided unity isn't all that bad.
>>51845372
kek
Elementary is the only option
>>51843137

Who can tell me a little more about Void Linux?
>>51844550

>NORMIES GET OFF MY BOARD
>REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>51859772
This, Tumbleweed is legit as fuck
>>51859832
I have it triple booted with arch.
It's kinda minimal and rolling release (like arch) but without systemd and good documentation. Be prepared to install lots of things from source if you want to use it as anything more than a hobby distro.
rinit is really fast though, boots real quick.
>>51843209
I'm still trying to find her, I know shes out there somewhere.
>>51859977
Some anon recomended it in /flt/. I tried to search some docs but (not like arch) I think it lacks kinda documentation. Am I right, wrong, or I don't know how to search?
>>51860000
Youre right, it is lacking in documentation (especially compared to Arch which pretty much sets the standard with its wiki alone)
That said, a lot of the arch wiki is transferable to void, and the bits that arent are (usually) the better documented bits of what does exist
Also nice quads
>>51860015
Then, everything asked, I will continue for a while.
I'm so newbie to fuck with Arch, although I want it to try so bad. Should I go 1st with Void? Void calls me because it's native no SystemD. But now I'm thinking I will get arch but with another logo.
Is it correct?
>>51843497
I actually didn't know about this. thanks anon.
>>51853684
1) Stability.
2) Bugs.
Pick one.
>>51857175
>tfw i used Mint and now using xubuntu
It's the first time i'm using Linux, so pls no bully.
>>51860064
Messing around with arch is usually quite painless thanks to the wiki.
Void is similar to arch in that its a minimal rolling release.
I'm not really experienced enough to go into some of the more intricate differences but I can say pacman is a better package manager than xbps (for me at least).
rinit is snappier than systemd, though there's not much of a difference and I would say systemd is (slightly) more user-friendly, if only for having better documentation.
>>51860724
Then, you would recomend me start with Void instead of Arch in that kind of distro? Because being newbie and stuff. . .
>>51850379
So do you want me to download about a dozen or so distros and install them one by one, try them out and see how I like them?
Some of us have girlfriends you know.
>>51857433
> I needed to focus on school, not trying to fix things I've broken.
You might not realize it never, but you just helped me a lot.
thanks.
>>51860946
Trying a distro is not download and testing it for 24 hours straight. . .
>>51860975
then how would I know what to choose if I don't use it for at least a couple of days? the one that has the prettiest icons?
>>51860946
Why are you even here then
>>51861000
Try it as you would use your fav distro for a week. Install, conf it, then use it as always for a week. You will be testing 4 distros for each month (in case you couldn't decide at 2nd-3-rd day)
>>51861000
Just stick with Windows lmao baka
>>51861005
Debian: Really stable, great for servers, but packages can be older versions
Arch: Needs more effort to get it running and to maintain it, new versions of the packages (Snapshots)
>>51860897
you really gotta know what you're doing, or be able to accurately translate what you need to do from the arch wiki to void.
>>51861108
Then, it is better to go straight to Arch?
>>51845372
>when I get bored
that's the point when you should stop hanging around in front of the screen and go for a walk, idiot
>>51861175
>Going outside
>Ever
I think you're on the wrong board
>>51861175
it's hot and sweaty out there and one time a girl laughed at me
>>51861217
my cooler broke and i was too lazy to buy a new one so i started to do my CAD work in the garden (0-4 degree Celsius currently). it's refreshing and i feel more productive, if it gets too cold i just get a blanket and a hot coffee. i'm outside most of the day, sit in the sun, sometimes i feed the birds who land on the back porch....
>>51861291
That sounds awful
>>51861312
not at all. i got a new cooler but i'm still doing it. working feels a lot better now that i'm sitting outside all day.
>>51861291
You work in your garden at 0º-4º? Men, that's cold for me.
xubuntu because sex with xfce
Arch is the new...
...hey, there was nothing like arch before, was there?
>>51861570
>...hey, there was nothing like arch before, was there?
Most distributions were like Arch. Bootstrapping from a minimal system isn't anything new or exciting, and is still commonplace in systems such as Solaris. Hell, you buy one of Sun's old Sunfire servers; there's a good chance it wont have a USB/PS2 or removable media support. Even now OpenBSD provides miniroot images.

>>51843137
After some time I've come to the conclusion only distros worth using are
Beginners or just werks - Ubuntu or buntu based
Server - debian
The enthusiast who spends his time on computer 24/7 - arch or gentoo
Someone who wants a system they can full customize but not have to worry about a bug every update - Slackware
Fedora is shit, don't touch it.
