I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as /flt/, is in fact, /fglt/, or as I've recently taken to calling it, /fg+lt/.

Arch because its easy, lightweight and the wiki solves all your problems.
No need for shitty threads ever again. :^)

Manjaro has never been good, if you want an OS that resembles Arch use Antergos
>>
>>54099945
Kill yourself you fucking faggot

Nice options are
Kubuntu
Xubuntu
Fedora

You should try killing yourself desu

Ubuntu just werks, and has the best support because is widely used
>>
>>54099945

mint is the decidedly best OP, make sure you encrypt your drive. Oy vey.

>>54100735
What's wrong with Manjaro? Helpful as fuck community, and clean and easy install. I installed it 2 months ago having never been on Linux before and it was really easy, nothing broke. I have it on dual boot with Windows because I wanted to have a backup OS in case I didn't like it. Now when I boot into windows it's freaking slow and laggy and shit I don't even bother with it anymore. Just wastes space.
>>
Gentoo for learning
Ubuntu for normal use

>>54101344
If you're looking for something like that just use Ubuntu Mate or something, anything but fucking Mint.
>>
Arch
>>
>>54101408
or use mint
>>
>>54099945
Just install ubuntu, disable the botnet and replace unity with a decent DE or WM.
>>
>>54101443
Or use something actually decent.

like mint

LINUX ISNT AN OS FAG ITS A KERNEL

KEK
EUROPE
RUSSIA
NAZIS
EMANCIPATION
LIMEWIRE

K*E*R*N*E*L GET IT

THERE ARE JUST MANY OSs BASED ON THE LINUX KERNEL

but ubuntu is the best if that helps you out
>>
>>54101508
Nope.
>>
The best one is Linux-libre.

I don't know why everyone else is recommending you distributions of the GNU operating system when you were clearly asking about variants of the Linux kernel.
>>
>>54101533
The os is gnu.

What you're looking for is 'distro'.
>>
>>54101344
No it's not, go fuck yourself and stop recommending people this garbage, newfriend.

I tried out al lot of distros (Gentoo not included), none of them are the perfect distro for everyone. Ubuntu werks pretty werky, fedora werks but not as good as ubuntu and it doesn't come with everything needed to just werk, arch takes long to configure and might not werk at all on some hardware configurations, debian is best imo. I'd suggest Debian/Ubuntu with your fave DE (mine's Gnome, as it has a good amount of features, looks pretty and is stable most of the time)
>>
>>54101307
The red star os you can install on any computer isn't locked down like the one in Best Korea.
>>
To be honest, Ubuntu.
>>
>>54099945
Windows 10. Why bother with a more vulnerable and much less supported OS?
>>

>What's wrong with Manjaro?
Nothing, they are a just shitposting. Any decent Arch user is content that we have more Linux users.
>Helpful as fuck community, and clean and easy install. I installed it 2 months ago having never been on Linux before and it was really easy, nothing broke.

It's been over 2 years for me. People on IRC are really helpful if you don't ask really stupid questions that are easily searched. I have few Debian machines that I maintain but I'm surprised how stable Manjaro is for a relatively new distro.

I had the misfortune of following the responses in this conversation, and the conclusion I arrived at was that you're plain and simply stupid.

Really, running out of responses and having an image do it -poorly- for you?

Manjaro KDE. Cinnamon is alright as well.

I think Linux-zen is the best for home use. It's quite fast and responsive to me
>>
>>54099945
Ubuntu seems to be pretty great for beginners, and probably one of the most innovative distros around today. I'd wait for v16 to come out before you download it. I think its coming out on the 21st.

There is nothing wrong with Manjaro if he is completely new to Linux Mint will probably be easier in my opinion Pacman is better than apt
