What is your favorite Linux distro, and why?

Windows 7 because fuck you

The one that arch GNU/Linux provides.

CentOS.

Because you can't say "no" to distro which has Chaos Star for its logo.

Windows 7. Linux is shit.

I'm liking Fedora so far, is bretty good.

Ive tried Crunchbang, Xubuntu, Ubuntu, Debian and so far Fedora is my favorite. Cant tell you why though.

I still wanna try Arch to see what the hype is about

>>45476343
Hype about Arch is that feel you can be like a hacker! :^)

I'm on linux mint and evrething is awesome!!

ive only tried ubuntu and ive mostly switched to this from windows 7, though i still use it from time to time for some stuff. have not tried any other distro because ive had no reason to yet, everything on ubuntu works

Mint because I'm winbabby and I dont have that much Linux experience.

Ubuntu, because I just only use linux to impress skids (and because im poor ;[ )

slackware

>>45476454
because you are forced to actually understand how things work

puppy.
don't laugh.

Well my "heart" is divided in two, Fedora and Debian
Debian - First distro I used, I can handle it very well and if I have problems with other distros I just switch to debian again

Fedora - I feel it stable, fast and gets the job done (at least on my machine) and I like the updated packages, for the things I do, it's like a debian with stable packages

>>45476343
>I'm liking Fedora so far
Are you enlightened by it?

>>45476500
yes mi'lady

Gentoo and Arch for the customization aspects.

CentOS & Ubuntu LTS for buziness.

I like debian philosophy as well.

Fedora has very low amount of packages if you omit rpm fusion. It's also the most unstable distribution of them all.

ha but really tho who are you i am steven does job corps ring any bells ?

I keep going back to Windows 7 because it just fucking rocks, it's the best operating system Microsoft ever created and I'm damned pissed they dumped it so fast to pursue Windows 8. We deserve a proper Service Pack 2, seriously, but they're never going to honor us loyal customers and provide us with one, those fuckers.

As for Linux, I've used it off and on since Slackware 1.0 well over 20 years ago and I still just can't find myself sticking with it. There's just something missing with Linux in any form or distro or variation that irks the fuck outta me and I can't figure out precisely what it is.

I can pick a distro, get it set up, optimize and tune it, and I just get sick of dealing with all the little issues that crop up that require the command line. If I wanted a command line OS I'd still be fucking using DOS, seriously.

Things are different now, and I'll be running Windows 7 for many years to come. Windows 8/8.1 is utter horrid garbage from start to finish, and Windows 10, good lord, don't even fucking get me started.

I just wish I could figure out that one thing that irks me so badly about Linux (of any kind) that keeps me from using it. I do use it from time to time but I end up using VMware's converter tool to take my Windows installation and turn it into a virtual machine to use on that Linux distro and I find myself spending MORE time using Windows as a guest OS on Linux than I do Linux itself.

I've always said Linux sucks, and for me 20+ years later it still does.

I recently bought an msata ssd and planned to install gentoo to it
congrats for me, I managed to do it
however, getting it to a functional state is another issue entirely
Portage is a pain in the ass, but admittedly I have zero experience with it. In my favor though, it's not very clear on what you're supposed to do, nor are the docs helpful either
For example, I want to install GTK+ just to get some gtk applications working, but for one reason or another, it refuses to compile and gives me a convoluted error message that I can hardly decipher

they offer fixes that don't work, are old as shit, or are smartass "I'll give you part of the answer now figure it out yourself ;)" kinds of things when I don't have the knowhow for gentoo to actually figure it out

I guess the sqt would be a good start until they say I shouldn't be using gentoo in the first place

Not him but the kernel has as many or more lines of code,as the rest of the OS combined together.

what exactly can you operate with just a kernel? use your damn brain m8, in order to have a usable system you need more than just a kernel, you need a shell, supporting tools, and any software considered to be standard for an OS to be distributed with.

that said, its irrelevant, the single greatest contribution that the GNU project made to free software was the GPL, which probably sees more use than the linux kernel on its own, and brought copyleft licensing, as well as the concept of free as in freedom software into the mainstream.

I use ubuntu with mate because it's the least headache with the best performance at the least bloat. I was using Lubuntu because I like the traditional layout and everything, but it's buggy and the graphics don't behave quite right. I liked Arch in so far that I liked installing from source was easy and I got to make the whole thing to my liking, but it broke all the goddamned time and I always ran into weird issues that I never even considered. Just didn't want to waste all my time on it. I also get too bored to finish a Gentoo install, so I never finished that. What I'd really like is the customizability of a Gentoo, but with the ability to sort of press some buttons and stuff and create a live USB of it.

Slackware.

Installs on every computer, out-of-the-box.
Doesn't do shit without your say-so.
AlienBOB seems to be everywhere in the Slackiverse, answering noob questions and being a generally helpful guy.
Everything command-line orientated is well-documented, instead of documenting the GUI and leaving the CLI to nights of frustration and anger.

Tails

>muh security

This, already posted in this thread but the real reason Slackware is so good is because it teaches why things work from the ground level, so you don't get shoddy band-aid fixes at high-level while things go catastrophic at the low level.

>>45476360
You mean Gentoo. Arch is there with Slackware. Gentoo is over-engineered, where Arch focuses on the simplicity of a greatly engineered operating system.

All three of these systems are great, but Gentoo really stands out because it's my favorite. Why?

Mainly because of bragging rights instead of the customization for me.

Just kidding, I use Google's Chrome OS.

So it's arch for dummies.

>>45483566
hehehe

Used ubuntu until 2010, then it turned weird, dumped it, used Mint Xfce since, love it.

I like XFCE reasonably well, though it doesn't do much, fucking launches shit on startup I've expressly configured it not to, and has the required linux-standard shitty taskbar/startmenu with a look and feel from 1992.

Otherwise I don't really give a fuck. As long as Debian is upstream they are pretty much all the same to me.

you're a true hero anon

Ubuntu with a forked LXDE.
It is called LXLE.

I haven't configured it yet.
Just the Hotkeys.

>>45476314 Arch doesn't have the GNU coreutils though

Everything is cool when you're part of the team.

plus internet points if that team is dev team for FLOSS project.

>>45488750
explain pls

OpenBSD mustar race

Debian, because of innertia.

Debian, because I can switch to minimal or a full featured install or go for an unstable/testing distro (be it a fresh install or just change the repos)

But then again, it's just out of comfort, I'm not very well educated on the freedom aspect of it.

Ubuntu Gnome

which Linux OS is the best for a newbie as a desktop replacement? give me a decent list of os to try

I here amazing things about arch but its not newbie friendly, would like that to be my main os

whats something simpler so i can get a good basis on this freedom everyone speaks about?

>>45476289

Linux Mint Cinnamon.

>>45496283

Ubuntu
Mint
OpenSuse

Probably Fedora

>>45477249
>SystemD
you can avoid systemd on debian.When you're on wheezy, install sysvinit-core and then install init. Systemd will be left out when you do dist-upgrade. Otherwise systemd is a one way street. Once you upgrade, you can't go back.

Fedora because it just werks

Mint Cinnamon.

Best Windows replacement.
And it supports nVidea optimus.

Debian love!

>>45476289
Debian Testing plus Unstable and some additional Canonical programs. RPM is a shit.

Debian is like an AK-47. Old, classic, but it gets the job done. Rock solid reliable.

>>45497518
You're describing Debian Stable. For the newest software you're also good with Debian or Ubuntu which is based on Debian Testing and or Unstable.
Debian is simply the professional standard all non Debian based distributions are irrelevant.

eOS

Because it's 2014 and OS's could look like this 10 years ago.
