Hello,

I just purchased an AMD framework 13 and while I wait (im)patiently for it to arrive, I was wondering what Linux distros people here are using.

I’ve only ever use Ubuntu on desktop, but I think I’m ready to move away from it now, which I guess leaves fedora and mint as officially supported distros.

What have you tried? What are your experiences?

    I too ran OS/2 back in the day (started with 2.0). I started my Linux journey with Red Hat Halloween in 95(?), but I tend to only recommend Debian based distros to beginners due to the vast amount of support available for that flavour. On the server side, it’s still RHEL and its forks.

      @JoMiran yeah, I have a lot of Debian in my home infrastructure. It does help and open up opportunities for beginners as a ton of tools and tutorials are from a Debian perspective (read: Raspberry pi and Ubuntu)
