I have no idea what linux distro to get.
>>53761533
Install Gentoo
>>53761533
There's /flt/ for a reason, y'know.
>>53761549
this desu
Debian, always.
It's the reference distro.
It's stable as fuck, almost to a fault.
Ricers switch away from it because it's too reliable.
It just works.
>>53761552
they seem like busy guys
don't want to trifle them with such a question desu
>>53761549
>>53761615
btw, I'm going to run it on a tab (t100ha, at least VM) choosing one that is optimal for performance won't be a problem, but a touch friendly one would be cool
Or are there any touch friendly DMs/WMs to recommend?
desktop environment matters more than distro
>>53761533
xubuntu or ubuntu gnome
or if ur feeling like a change and want a rolling release/arch based distro, Antergos
>>53761784
which 1 you recommend for a touch interface?
>>53761900
none. touch support is very primitive.
>>53761615
Finally installed Debian earlier. Hoping this will be the end of my distro hopping, I just want something that won't fail me.
>>53761832
I'm going to try antergos, what am i in for?
>>53761900
Not him, but gnome 3 is probably the most touch friendly DE. Other than that unity.
Look into Fedora (best gnome integration), Ubuntu Gnome (just werks) or Ubuntu (Unity one). It's best you wait till mid april since that's when new version of Ubuntu LTS gets released
>>53761963
just gotta make a choice for desktop environment, I'd say gnome for touch. Antergos is essentially arch without all the unnecessary setup. Gains you easy access to AUR and actually uses Arch's repos (manjaro doesn't)
>>53761784
>desktop environment matters more than distro
That's true but even above that I would say:
Package management or lack thereof matters more than distro or rather IS the big difference between distros and what usually makes people stay with a certain distro.
Using the same desktop environment or just a window manager, you barely notice any difference if any between most distros until you have to update or install something.

>I just want something that won't fail me
In the end, you will fail you.
OpenSUSE, you get yast. Great for noobs
>>53761533
SteamOS

Linux in a nutshell
>>53761615
Unfortunately, I've not experienced this. I guess I like distros like Ubuntu and OpenSUSE holding my hand with some things. One small thing that annoys me with Debian is how I'm not in the sudoers list initially
>>53761615
Oh, and proprietary drivers in Debian are annoying. Even after hunting down the Iso with the proprietary shit bundled in, it still seems to be a 50/50 chance that something won't work
Debian --> Mom/friend/avgjoe
Arch --> really like SC or memefag
>>53762126
That happened to my life already so I'm not worried about that, don't think I didn't consider everything anon
>>53762202
Jus checkin
>>53762039
Which is why gentoo reigns supreme: Portage
