best linux distro and why, post your arguments
ubuntu 9.04 because it's fun
GNU/Windows 10
It has games.
Void because I'm a hipster piece of shit
whichever one works for you. no need to argue about what you use to do your work.
For desktops? OpenSUSE.

OpenSUSE is, in my opinion "the" distro for desktop, mostly because of YaST.
You may be thinking
>"Okay, where are my packages? I bet 3rd party softwares like Visual Studio code or Powershell won't work"
Luckily however OpenSUSE, like all other distros, support FUSE (Linux) that enables it to utilize appimages (cross-distro compatible portable Linux apps).

This.
I like Mint because it already comes with almost all of my preferred applications preinstalled.
And it saves me a lot of headache because everything just works from the start and I don't to waste my time configuring shit.

Gnu/Gentoo and Gnu/Funtoo because these are only distros in which you have a choice of program version and still have package manager.
gentoo, of course

Came here to post this. Only been using it for a couple of weeks but I'm impressed, think I can finally stop hopping.
I remember the first Linux I ever used, back in 2002 / 2003, was SuSE Professional or whatever it was called, I actually got a boxed version with cute printed manuals and stuff. I remember sitting there learning ruby 1.something on it, good times. Wish I'd kept the discs.

people tend to have a shit ton of issues installing nvidia's proprietary drivers.
>>57800835
>proprietary
Well there is your problem
Why would you want those?
Windows 10 :^)
>>57800849
programs like hashcat require updated nvidia drivers, and the open-source nvidia drivers that are defaulted are out of date
>>57800137
is openpepe good for gaming?
>>57800958
u can install nvidia driver and steam like ubuntu

Lubuntu
Ubuntu 16.04 because it's what I use
Also because it just werks, can literally google the vaguest of issues when I have them and get an answer as the first result, unity honestly doesn't even look that bad with a few tweaks

xubuntu

Anyone try Steam OS distro?
>>57799963
openSUSE
+KDE works
+-Installation wizard
+Yast for GUI system configuration
+Snapper for rolling back updates
+software.opensuse.org for missing packages
+Tumbleweed for stable rolling release
-where is apt-get autoremove equivalent?
-no amdgpu-pro
-getting propr. media playback to work is a pain in the butt
>>57803748
Agreed. It's a very well constructed distro that even your grandmother can work with, as long as you're okay with sacrificing some freedums.

what did Bart mean by this?

Alternatively -- 'Your distro'
Fedora
It's the one I'm using.
