I would never criticise someone’s distro. As long as it was arch built without any scripts.

Distros are like Kinks. I have my own and you have yours, I won't judge.

Ahh yes, Good Guy Greg. Just like the good old days, I'm loving the nostalgia of these vintage memes.

they are just waiting for you to discover Arch ;)

I know enough about Linux to be able to install most distros and use them, but I don't know enough about them to criticizes others for their choice.

I will, however, warn them about Manjaro, fuck it.

Everytime I mention Linux in the outside world, people's brains freeze and then I get questions. I need a better social circle.

I use Arch btw.

Amogos is the best just saying🙄

I swear that when I was a student, my department had a good mix of distros.

• Most students were on Ubuntu and Mint VMs.
• Students in system or HPC labs had to learn CentOS. However, my entry condition to my lab was to install FreeBSD as a guest on VMWare ESXi. Everything must be specifically partitioned and must be done in one sitting. (This happened illegally in the server room. I could not exit and hope to reenter, hence the rule.)
• Enthusiasts learn Debian.
• I don't know what happened to SlackWare people.

Kids these days? WSL or Mac.

i'm about to take my first peek into linux on mint. i'm not completely put off learning some new things but being able to do that in a desktop that is familar makes everything a lot easier to pick up on. who knows, if it all goes smoothly maybe next week i'll be running arch (i won't)

Arch linux is the gateway drug that leads to NixOS

First time installing Linux? What the fuck is this Ubuntu shit, that distro sucks. You really should try out Gentoo as your first distro.

Can't believe I fell for that as a kid. Wasn't even my first distro, but Gentoo for beginners is just hilarious

I use Hannah Montana Linux btw

I don't criticize, I just give fair warnings. I want people to enjoy Linux like I do, not call me every other week because something is "broken"

It's mostly all Debian based, so it matters little.

Finally somewhere I can start a CentOS stream community!

Ubuntu 🤮 if I wanted to be tracked by Amazon, I would have a registered address.

I use ArseLinux btw

Ain't nothin wrong with Ubuntu (is Ubuntu still around?)

Is Ubuntu still the go-to for home use?

Looking to use for things like web, office, Plex server, streaming, etc

bsd from scratch btw

How cheap can i build a linux pc if i dont want to game on it? Just browsing, maybe play some videos from youtube every now and then. Mostly browsing and using excel etc for work, no gaming at all.

What is this thing about Manjaro in this Comments here?

That's damn right, however, Debian is the only right choice.

Eventually, they'll start criticising your choice of DE or text editor.
