Linux is Linux.
We should send all those people, pages and guides suggesting distros to hell.
And then instead we suggest update-schemes (fixed, rolling, slow-roll), package managers and Desktop environments. People with enough brain cells to start a computer are then absolutely able to chose a distro fitting them based on that. Everything else coming with a distro is just themeing/branding anyway...
(and just for the use statistic: Archlinux, Opensuse (Leap and Kalpa), Debian here...)
I'm ready for the feature triangle
There’s a lot of advantages that simply come with using a more popular distribution. For one, having a larger pool of package maintainers (and therefore more packages) is pretty important. Have you ever tried using NixOS as a daily driver? I did a few years ago. Very annoying having to create my own packages for so many different (and relatively common) things I wanted to use.
I don't care in the slightest which package manager or UI or if releases are rolling or rocking.
What I care about is usability and ease if use, so I went with the best one, Linux Mint!
😁
WSL and Android, then?
