What if the perfect distro were the configs we made along the way?
But like…yeah, that’s kinda it IMO. None of the distros come out of the box absolutely perfect for me and my use case, but Debian is close enough, well-documented enough, and flexible enough to be configured into a “perfect distro”. I haven’t really had a reason to distro-hop on any of the systems I installed Debian on.
Only to drop them all in favor of nixos. However you mostly can translate your config into configuration.nix
That’s my goal. When I tried NixOS 3 years ago I didn’t had time and there was a lack of documentation to make a .nix for missing packages. Community was… something not very welcoming. I will try again during college break.
There’s no single perfect distro.
Some are stable, some run light. Some are fully featured. Some are bleeding edge.
And some are for plotting world domination.
But there’s only one for saving the world.
Wrong, my distro is the perfect distro, everyone else is just adding to fragmentation
and them there’s nixOS being everything that you said
Arch can be whatever you want it to be 😇 you just have to form it yourself.
Endeavor. It’s just Arch but approachable, or Manjaro without the AUR issues
Didn’t know Tomoko used Linux, truly based.
99% of distro hoppers quit before finding the perfect distro
My experience tends to be
I haven’t been converted to a Linux person just yet but I love all the watamote around here
We all end up using fedora.
I was hopping several distros.
Ubuntu. Nah not my thing.
Fedora. Mhh yeah but I have Nvidia isn’t there sth. For me?
Ah yes Nobara. Nice a distro from the glorious eggroll guy.
Switched because of stupid reasons… To:
Debian-trixie. Cool that’s the distro I will stay.
My system gets somehow into a boot loop after 60 seconds of logging in…
Ok let’s try Linux Mint. Mhh on my laptop it works better… Nah my hardware doesn’t like Mint.
Nixos. Holy shit is that difficult to use. I love it! Stable as fuck. Bleeding edge almost. Newer gonna use sth. else. That thing is amazing and a ton of work to do anything.
NixOS? Ain’t nobody got time for that. I still try to not struggle with weird flickering while gaming using EndeavourOS + Hyprland using Nvidia graphics. It’s a pain. But one day I’ll make it work and it will feel so good.
