Hello /g/, what's the best Linux distro and why?
>>52055619
You're going to start something dangerous, OP.
Install Gentoo
arch loonix is teh bset disrto!!!!1 especialy if ur a haker
Any variant of Ubuntu without Unity, Arch, and Debian, maybe Fedora. Gentoo is a meme and for madmen.
Ubuntu. Seriously, there's no reason to pick something that doesn't 'just werk'.

Lubuntu > Ubuntu. Ubuntu has a ton of fucking bloat and I'd rather not install another DE to get rid of the Amazon botnet.
>>52055950
Fine. An Ubuntu variant, and yes, LXDE IS better than Unity.

does Ubuntu really "just work" or is all my stuff going to crash on it like the other linux distros?
kali

Really, it does work. Assuming you have all the drivers available, you should be golden. I've only crashed ONCE on Ubuntu in the four(?) months I've been using it, and that was because I was also installing Gentoo on a VM at the time.
Arch because you can make it into whatever you want
>nobody has mentioned based xubuntu yet
baka desu senpai
>>52055619
freeBSD because it's not linux
Arch, fedora, any ubuntu distro that isnt ubuntu, gentoo
deepin is a great Ubuntu/Debian variant, works very nice out-of-the-box.
I'm going to switch back to Gentoo though probably, since I miss portage too much.
The one you personally like best. For me that's debian.
That is a pointless question. What is your use case?
Regardless, install Gentoo.

OP here, sorry for late response. I'm looking for a clean design with cool colors. I'd like to browse the web and listen to some music.

Ubuntu, fedora, Debian Sid, crunch bang++, manjaro, antergos, Mint

You dumb kid, a good OS should also be useful for normal stuff, not just pen testing. If you install kali on something more than a USB then you are a idiot script kiddie that probably don't know how to use Kali.

People like ubuntu because they think it 'just werks'. What they don't realize is that every other distribution 'just werks' as well.
What makes ubuntu inferior is that other distros 'just werk'. But more than that, they 'just werk' AND, you understand how they 'just werk'.
>>52057231
literally anything

>AND, you understand how they 'just werk'.
Sounds like when you say "just werk" you mean 'just read a wiki'
