I’d like to settle on a distro, but none of them seem to click for me. I want stability more than anything, but I also value having the latest updates (I know, kind of incompatible).

I have tested Pop!_Os, Arch Linux, Fedora, Mint and Ubuntu. Arch and Pop being the two that I enjoyed the most and seemed the most stable all along… I am somewhat interested in testing NixOS although the learning curve seems a bit steep and it’s holding me back a bit.

What are you using as your daily drive? Would you recommend it to another user? Why? Why not?

    To me, Debian is almost perfect.

    I agree, but ever since systemD, well…

        Devuan is awesome, but I’ve moved to Void! Devuan is a ripper though!

      I decided to switch to Devuan a long time ago, because it’s an opinionated Debian that align better with my preferences. The Devuan community prefer the simple solutions like ALSA, sysvinit (and others), udev independent of systemd, would rather avoid dbus and so on… the thing is I’ve never made the switch. I’m now running old old stable Debian with sysvinit, ALSA etc… but soon™ when I decide to clean up the mess that is my computer, I’ll rebase to Devuan which does what I want out of the box :P
