how good or bad is Linux mint?

Anything with openbox.

Arch.

Solus

>>62257398
Alpine + xfce.

>>62257398

fedora

Manjaro+ GNOME.

got a new laptop a couple of months back and was a good reason to try a new distro.

I've worked through all the major distros and normally use Arch.

Thought I'd try Manjaro, and I'm pretty happy. No doubt I'll be switching again in a couple of months, but its solid distro worth a try.

elementary desu

OP here

I'm looking for a distro that does the job and that's it, I also interested on developing and programming so that's a good thing to take on account

Debian. Everything else is tryhard faggot shit.

>>62258006
Debian is tryhard faggot shit. Just use Ubuntu like everyone else does.

>>62258018
Ubuntu throws around an error every time I boot it. Fuck Canonical along with their Amazon spyware.

void linux desu
uwu

>>62257995
Not him but good call. Manjaro for me is the perfect intersection of stability and newness. The only problems I ever had were when I was dual-booting with Windows 10, but since I wiped that and went to just Manjaro I've been very happy.

I think I gonna try manjaro, should I pick the KDE or the xfce edition?

Currently a student, I know some bash, but really dont know the "layout" of linux (like with windows you know you have C drive, where drivers are, theres a registry etc)...


Anyways I'm not a total retard so I'm capable of going straight to something "hard" like Arch, but I was looking at void since the no systemD thing interested me, I figure it has fewer attack surfaces for security?

My main concern though is, if I go with void, how often am I going to be in a situation where im developing something, or working on an assignment, and I end up in a position where "oh fuck im running void so now I cant do ___, so I need to run ubuntu now"

>>62258363
that's why I don't want a try hard distro, I'm a developer too and I don't wanna fall on the "I can't do___"

I want an all around good distro for work, fun and every day use

Actually...

>>62258386
I mean I know one can set things up such that you can pick which OS you enter via Grub (dont ask me how, I just remember that); so really it shouldn't be tooooo painful if it happens...

>>62257398
Nothing beats Slackware in this aspect. It's very unixy and old-school nerdy.
Also Solus if we talking normie-tier distros.
Both of this systems are "one man vision" projects even if they have teams behind them.

>>62258334

lubuntu with openbox (already has but openbox session) is my cozy favorite.

A bit out of left field, but maybe you should consider hackintoshing?

You just perfectly described most dev’s rationale for choosing macOS

>>62260619
Don't you need a mac already for that? What's the point?

>>62258392
Garbage taste.

>>62260648
There’s ways around that (finding a friend who does have a mac, school computers), and if you’re really desperate you can find a Snow Leopard iso and work your way from there

there’s a forum for this shit, I think it’s called tonymacx86

Trisquel has been good for me. For some reason I can't sort out how to create a live booting USB with it but otherwise it has run wonderfully.

Well, as long as cookies are turned on. If I turn them off videos have dual audio.

I'm new af though and my comp is shit so maybe if I had a thinkpad it would work better.

>>62260764
And I could say the same to you, friendo. I'm guessing it would mean less from me to you, seeing as how to take penises in your ass and all...

>>62260835
That's a lot of work for a mediocre os.

>>62258363
As a person who loves and only uses Void (long time arch user), I've got to say your concerns are legit. I'd go with fedora of I were you.

Solus/Manjaro

Why do people meme about systemd being bad? What's wrong with it?

>>62257527
Mint is a gateway distro. It "Just works" and is meant for first time linux users. But after you test out some terminal stuff, you should go to debian (more safe, more stable, more posibilities).

>>62263182
Two main reasons. One, a massive case of scope creep. Systemd does a lot of things, including many things that lots of people think init has no real reason to be doing. Two, Lennart is an arrogant dickweed, even by the standards of the free-software world.

Please actually explain this to me.
t. used lots of distros and found they are all capable of exactly the same things, except non-Ubuntu is harder for no reason

>>62257398
Ubuntu or bust

>>62261075
> when the good boi from school tries to insult you

you taketh thein genitalia up theinth rectallian cavitium

definitely arch

>>62263663
>more stable
Uses older packages that have been tested for a long peroid of time without crashing
>more safe
same as above but the priority was more about the safeness
>more posbilities
This kind of distro inculde a lot of new "unstested" packages

>>62260619
I would rather not, my current laptop is an OK one and macOs always seem kind of resources hungry

>>62257398
Antergos + XFCE or XFCE Ubuntu (Xubuntu)

Fedora 26 with gnome is pretty comfy desu.

>>62257872
It's nice but I like systemd's sockets and (the now stable) binary logs.

>>62264299
This

>>62257398
Ubuntu.

>>62257398
anything with xfce
anything

>>62264299
So nobody can fit into that box?

>>62257398
Arch + KDE no doubt

the only reason to use debian on desktop is if youre a babby duck who wants to look cooler than ubuntu users

>>62257398
Solus or Fedora
It just werks

>>62265572
>Fedora
>just werks
Nah, too much fuckery with adding a non-free repo/codecs/font rendering, etc. Plus, slow as fuck package manager and Wayland is just not here yet (GDM loop bug was comfy as hell).

Anything with kde really. It's as configurable and complex as you need it to be but doesn't stand in your way.

>>62257398
Solus.

>>62263248
There is no reason to switch to Debian if Mint does the job. Debian still autistically complains about needing nonfree firmware during installation.

macOS is the comfiest "Linux" disto
