What is the worst distro?
I nominate Arch.
Ubuntu
>apt
>unity
Pacman is fucking shit though.
THICK
>>53665182
>The best package manager
What the fuck is wrong with you
>>53665192
agreed.
she looks tired holding up that phone, she should sit on my lap.
>>53665070
Iskra is a godess made for breeding.
>no versions, rolling release
>so updates are little and often
>every update could fuck up your config files
>so the great benefit is a huge risk
>>53665070
Probably slack ware as it does not even have an interface.
>>53665070
Probably one of the countless worthless Debian forks that nobody knows or cares about.
The worst distro actually in massive use is probably Android.
Arch: Worst community
>>53665201
zypper is my man. Pacman has no search option
>>53665349
pacman -Ss
debian is shit.
dont know how people can call that a "stable server os", even buntu is better.
Does anyone else here remember Lindows?
That was shit.
>>53665556
What about wildcards?
For me, the worst distro would be a distro that fails to solve the problem it sets out to solve.
All the small niche distros are the only ones in the race because most of them are just skinning their favorite DE and adding packages.
You get weird fragmentation where you have to find specific solutions.
Manjaro is one of the worst distros I have seen.
It is fine as a reference point if you don't how to configure arch, but once it is setup, there is no good reason to use it over arch.
The same goes for mint.
>>53665598
Yes. I brought it from a computer market for about £5, it was my first real introduction to linux just before red hat.
The built in store was hilarious, everything was so expensive on there.
>>53665192
SHOP
>>53665070
All linux distros are shit
>>53666124
This. Thats why I switched to OSX and FreeBSD.
>>53665863
you know
there's this thing called grep
>>53666156
>>53666124
Samefag
>>53665070
why the hell would you need to shop Iska?
Anyway, I'll go with Void Linux.
>>53665598
Lindows was fine and implemented some new things back in the day. I remember they had the first paid app store that actually worked. I still prefered Mandrake back then though because it was the only distro that partitioned my disks when installing correctly
Gentoo is literally a meme.
>>53666552
>runs a financial exchange
>meme
Pick one
>>53666552
Gentoo is the best distro you fucking mongoloid
>mfw all these anti-Arch threads
I think someone just lost an argument and is trying to take it out on someone
>>53666620
This is not new. Arch has always sucked and deserved ridicule.
>>53666649
You seem upset
>>53666724
You seem new.
>>53666773
Woah dude you sure showed him
Arch seems to be unpopular among the clueless.
>forced upgrades just like win10
>>53665598

>>53667811
>forced to update the package manager
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEW!
Everything related with Ubuntu
>>53665863
Do one thing and do it well.
You all faggots know that the worse is Elementary
>>53668077
A wildcard is a very simple thing for a package manager, say I wanted to uninstall anything to do with foo, now i have to do a search and grep, then type out my own statement. Fucking absurd
>>53668195
What makes them the worst?
>>53668492
>Purchase Elementary OS
bunch of gay jews
>>53668519
You can put in 0$ for the amount if you select custom amount.

Debian.
>apt
>>53665201
Portage > pacman > yum/zypper > *
>>53668519
This makes it no different from Ubuntu.
>>53665863
fuckin newwwwbs REEEEEEEEE
gentoo by far
>>53668601
Not really, Ubuntu asks for donations, Elementary asks you to buy it
>>53668549
The gall this faggots have to try to sell linux and put an undertone that you are a bad person for not paying for their work (basically a gtk theme)
>>53668519
That doesn't make it a bad distro, retard. It just means you don't understand free software. What, exactly, makes it a bad distro?
>>53668744
Shitty devs
>>53668793
Again, wtf do you mean? "Shitty devs" is unsubstantiated opinion. No facts offered to back up retarded opinion. So, yet again, what exactly makes Elementary a shitty OS? I have a feeling you are an autistic retard that can spout memes but has no idea what ideas may be behind them. You are a parrot with a fucking keyboard.

this
why use manjaro when architect exists?
>>53665070
But it's a very good distro:
>up to date packages
>rolling release
>very limited patching of upstream packages
>simple, understandable packaging system and a huge repository of user packages
Yeah, it's a little buggier than stable distros, and a little more work to install, but it's a decent distro. Don't listen to memes.
Gentoo. Chin rubbers and people who play chess at Starbucks are their main audience.
>>53669340
Architect gets the Tay treatment every time the dev's ass itches.
>>53665263
In two years of use, only one update has fucked up, and that was because cairo got an update and gnome stopped supporting the cairo-ubuntu fork.
The solution was obvious, get rid of gnome, never has broken since.
>>53665891
>>It is fine as a reference point if you don't how to configure arch, but once it is setup, there is no good reason to use it over arch.
If you use the unstable repos, it literally is Arch with a couple cool tools like mhwd-kernel.
>>53667811
Why would you ever use arch if you didn't want to upgrade? Kinda defeats the purpose if you don't want to upgrade for more than two months straight.
>>53665330
lmao.
I read their foruns and think: 'man, I understand them.' Because I've often wanted to tell people to sort themselves, read the manual, search and stuff, but then I gave them the condensed, easy steps because I was no cunt over legs or entitled teenager anymore.
And they get so annoying about it.
It's a camp of blown out buttholes who've been tortured and taught to be strict and torture others by providing nobody an easier walk through the system.
>>53666859
>I think someone just lost an argument and is trying to take it out on someone
and you're still badmouthing others about not being able to keep an argument properly
>>53665070
I LOVE THAT ASS
>>53665182
pong is so much better
>>53669801
>It's a camp of blown out buttholes who've been tortured and taught to be strict and torture others by providing nobody an easier walk through the system.
Not really, there are curmudgeons, but helpful people too. You're thinking of BSD users.
>>53665588
>distro maintained by actual paid developers is better than a volunteer maintained distro
So what else is new?
All of the FOR FREE distros are shit.
>he thinks arch is the worst because of stupid 4chan memes when there are tons of god-awful, unmaintained, unstable, insecure piles of shit out there
You probably use BotnetMint, don't you, OP?
Linux Mint. Shitty, full of bugs and security holes, loved by Pajeet and Jose, and brings nothing new to the table.
>>53665263
i been everyday using arch with Awesome wm for over 2 years never a problem!
>>53665070
tina you fat lard
Mint and Fedora are worst from major.
windows 10
I nominate your mother.
She's been distributed to everyone for decades but still has no stable user base and has sub-par reviews, plenty of bugs and viruses too.
She's been known to have many vulnerabilities through her open back doors as well.
