Fedora and Arch btw
Mint, I’m new to linux so I picked one that looked easier to manage. Really impressed so far coming from Windows 10. Runs Firefox and Dolphin perfectly, which is 99% of my computer use, lol
Took a bit for me to figure out how to run BG3 on it, but finding out about the Heroic Game Launcher made that really easy too.

I’m using Debian now but I still use the desktop environment/UI that Mint uses because it’s so nice.
What’s that like, and how is it different from just Mint?
I assume mostly package management?

Ooh, I love that it’s Ubuntu, so it’s familiar, and it looks so nice! I’ll use that distro when I get bored of Mint, thanks! I’m told a large part of being a Linux user is trying out different distro’s, lmao

Arch and debian btw
big fan, arch for things I use every day and gaming, and debian for servers/vms/lxc I don’t want to touch more than once a week or two
NixOS btw

god I’m not brave enough to try flatpak on nixos. trying to make appimages work scared me off of the "universal " formats. I just beat my head into the wall learning how to write nix packages.

nixos is a good investment when you know exactly what you like and just want to reproduce it on every machine you touch. the ability to rollback and stuff are just nice perks - they’re not gonna get you over the admittedly steep learning curve of the packaging system.

all of those things work perfectly in nixos. I use most of them myself.

nixos gang!

Honestly for proprietary apps I use Flatpaks. I just have the daemon for that enabled in my nix config. It’s too bad having to manage 2 packaging systems, but I only need a few things installed from flathub and it makes life easier.
I am a simple Debian Stable user.

nervously glances over at Kubuntu
Arch btw
also shout out to Crystal Linux for being my gateway into Arch!
:3

I’ve been using Fedora for a while, but I’ve been looking for something new to tinker with though
I dual boot arch with another install of arch.
based, but also… why?
upgraded my hdd to an ssd and decided might as well do a new install
Elementary here (don’t hate me it looks good on my laptop)
I used to use arch on my gaming rig, then I pirated windows because vortex mod manager is impossible to keep working through wine.
i use arch, btw. also alpine, btw. and some guix, btw.
