What's the best linux OS?
Arch
>>55041626
Xubuntu.
>>55041626
elementaryOS
>>55041648
Literally trash tier OS
OP: Gentoo
>>55041626
Xubuntu is pretty great.
GNU/Linux is a single OS.
>>55041660
kek
Arch Linux
Good specs: Gentoo
Shitty specs: Arch
>>55041626
>Linux OS
It's pronounced GNU/Linux and they're not OS they're distros
>>55041626
Crux.
>>55041664
could you upload that wallpaper
Any fucking reasonably general-purpose distro. I don't care about what I use anymore to get my shit done.
Good: Ubuntu, Debian (sorta), Fedora.
Bad: Arch, Gentoo.
>>55041626
Fedora
>>55041701
Your good to bad list seems to be more of rank from easiest to install to hardest to install.
>>55041664
>>55041639
how do you pronounce it?
is it [ksubuntu]
or is it [ex ubuntu]
or maybe [zubuntu]
>>55041736
zubuntu
>>55041736
I personally just say "ksu-buntu".
It's just like the name "Cirno". There's no agreed-upon way to pronounce it, and nobody gives a shit.
>>55041701
Only part of this post that wasn't idiotic was Debian.
>>55041736
Depends. Is it your first Linux distro?
If so, Ubuntu or Xubuntu is the way to go..
Don't listen to the Arch/Gentoo memes. Get into that shit once you're comfortable with Linux and only if your time has no value.
>>55041736
zubuntu
>>55041626
Windows 10
>>55041626
Whichever one works best for you, hence why there are many.
>>55041626
Android.
Chrome OS
If anyone argues against this, they are worthless neckbeard neets that need to die.

>>55042012
>botnet
Good: http://biebian.sourceforge.net/
Bad: all the rest
>>55041878
I have a fedora server it's pretty nice once i fix dnf from purging itself.
>for server
centos
>for desktop
arch
>for desktop beginners
ubuntu
>>55041736
Ex Ubuntu, mostly so people know what I'm talking about and don't think I'm saying Ubuntu weirdly.
>>55041626
>linux OS?
you mean linux distribution
>>55042332
Unity ubuntu sucks. I'm not sure if you kids remembered this but back when ubuntu was around version 10.04 netbooks were all the rage, and there was a netbook edition. The netbook edition later becomes the full fledge unity desktop in 11.04. 10.10 was the last great release.
>tfw your desktop environment was designed as a netbook interface
The other flavors are much better (xubuntu, kubuntu, gnome ubuntu).
Debian is also pretty great. I have way to many stability issues with manjaro and arch packages. I can say I wish there was a Antergos version for Debian.
>>55041626
RHEL
>>55041660
Only correct answer, not evening memeing
>>55041664
Does look pretty comfy anon
Vista
Pinguy OS
Just use GNU OS
Miley Cyrus Linux
>>55041626
Only Gentoo or Debian
>>55041664

>>55041635
Fuck arch, let them all drown in hell
>>55042332
>>for desktop beginners

*tips Fedora*
>>55041664
Desktop environment? It looks gourgeous.

>chinkpad owners beware
Dell Chromebook 13 with Coreboot bios and Galliumos, glass trackpad, backlit keyboard, almost perfect adobe rgb ips 13" screen, magnesium alloy chassis, carbon fiber, Broadwell i3, around 9 hour battery life, better premium feel then a macbook, ≈ $500
Feels pretty gud. The new hp chromebook with usb c is pretty nice but I don't think there is a independent bios yet.

debian testing
>>55043081
What environment, dock and icon theme are you using? Please.
>>55041626
Linux is an operating system
You're talking about a software distribution that includes the Linux kernel
>>55041626
GNU + Linux of course.
>>55041660
>literally
I didn't know there were any sorority girls that ran Gentoo
>>55042696
PINGUY
>>55043129
the fuck did you just say?
>>55041664
too bad it doesn't look like that when you do a fresh install..
Debian, Slackware, or Linux From Scratch
>>55042998
Xfce with the galliumos (it's a dell chromebook 13) arc gtk theme(im looking for a better gtk theme or gonna design my own). I like my themes with flat numix round icons but with slick and clean like glass windows and boarders. My minimalist crystal style is a beautiful style because it presents depth with minimalism. Flat minimalist looks bland and two demential.
>>55041736
I say xubuntu
PINGU OS OR BUST
>>55041666
satanic trips confirm
now delet this thread
>>55043081
nice desktop but why displaying root and home as they are in the same partition?
>>55043118
Not him but it looks like Xfce, Plank, and Numix Circle.
>>55043170
The truth
This book doesn't duscuss user space
Tanenbaum doesn't discuss user space
The dino book doesn't discuss user space
No one except Stallman includes user space in the term operating system
Except Microsoft who has critical security vulnerabilities due to scrollbar code in the kernel
>>55042012
> anyone thinks like this, they are worthless neckbeard neets that need to die.
FTFY
>>55043118
Plank as the dock (It's the best and most stable without crashes). XFCE xubuntu modified Galliumos Arc GTK theme (gonna find a more fitting gtk theme).
I wish QT themes have better support with other de's. I'm a fan of kde but dislike stability issues and resource use.
I stopped using arch and went back to xubuntu and debian because stability is very critical unless you want to reinstall distros over and over and move program profiles on such.
>>55043234
Forgot picture
>>55043211
It's a conky config from my old arch system. I'm too lazy to change it to something else. I have a bug with my config boarder size so I need to completely rewrite it. That's why you see part of the board under the xfce panel.
Good job pingu
>>55043106
I'm planning on using debian sid as my next desktop computer distro.
I'm also planning on doing GPU passthrough to play a few games.
I'm currently have my old acer laptop as a fedora sftp and ssh server but the speeds on my home's cat5e are sufferable. I have 2 gigabit swktches but they can't talk to each other so I use 2 belkin routers to link my upstairs and downstairs.
>>55043242
How is that book, Anon?
I just started reading it a day ago, and was wondering how the rest of it, and how it may compare to other books.
I'm also reading through a couple OS X internals books as well:
Mac OS X and iOS Internals: To the apple's core
Mac OS X Internals: A Systems Approach
Any idea which of those is better? I decided to go for the former because it was published more recently.
>>55041626
>>55042967
Say, anon, would you dare call Deepin 'comfy'? I'm looking at getting it as well.
>>55043762
pretty comfy. i installed linux for the first time yesterday and im enjoying it. it's very normie friendly.
I prefer middle-of-the-road distros when it comes to accessibility. That way it's not retarded like Ubuntu, not not downright autistic like Gentoo. Otherwise they're all pretty interchangeable.
>>55041626
Manjaro Cinnamon!
Sorry.
>>55043854
This.
Debian/Cent/Fedora etc are all pretty decent. I've used arch/ubuntu quite a lot but Debian wins for me. My university uses cent and it's OK.
>>55043887
It's kind of true, anon. A lot of the time, here on 4chan, I say blatantly incorrect shit so that people will be eager to correct me.
Whenever I ask a question earnestly, it usually just gets ignored.
If you are coming from Windows and want something that just works and are not interested in appearing to be a 1337 haxor then Ubuntu MATE is the answer.
You will notice that, while nice, it is still inferior to Windows in every aspect that a simple end user would notice. With Windows being very inexpensive you will most likely find no reason to use it as your main desktop OS, and simply go back to Windows after dicking around for a while.
If you are coming from Mac OS X and are scared of the coming macOS apocalypse, jump on the Linux Mint train.
If you can.
>>55043999
What is the MacOS apocalypse, Anon?
>>55041626
lunix is the os, everything ontop of it is just a skin
>>55043999
Wouldn't elementary be more their speed?
>>55044221
It's considered to be getting shittier with each version since say, snow leopard.
Bodhi
>>55044809
Explain how. It all seems okay to me.
I've also heard that lately, Apple has been working on HUGE under-the-hood changes in XNU/darwin. Though users and application developers aren't affected because the codebase is so well-modularized.
Is that what you're referring to, or some more obvious userland or user-facing changes?
>>55042012
Not much point removing the GNU/GPL rojan when you substitute it with a botnet.
>>55044833
Why does Bodhi's logo always look like a bee's abdomen? I've never been able to look at it and interpret it as a leaf.
so the thing is between debian/xubuntu/gentoo?
which of then is better and why?
none cuz they are shit for running vidyas

Debian is a common base for many distros, due to their primary sources of software being GPL or GPL-compatible. Ubuntu takes Debian's Testing branch (middle ground between stable and unstable), throws in some nonfree software, and sets things up to be easy on newbies. Bit on the fatter side, though.
Gentoo is a small preconfigured base, and you fill in the blanks for everything else. Can be very slim, very efficient, but requires notable time investment and not noob-friendly.
