This may start a war in the replies, but let’s see!
I use Arch btw.
Yes, of course you do :) And next week, you’ll be using NixOS :)
What is the fuss about nixos?
“He said the line!”
Honestly it’s just so good. The installation was a heck of a process the first time but it taught me so much, and no other distro I’ve tried has just worked like this across all my hardware.
I’m on Arch because it’s stock on the Steam Deck. I feel like a “participation award” Linux user, but I’m happy to be here at least.
Linux Mint, the vanilla distro with chocolate.
Mint user checking in. It’s easy to use and I like Cinnamon. Only complaint is the lack of Wayland support.
Simple: Arch for desktops and Debian for servers.
This is it. This is the way.

Arch
Which tiling window manager? I want to switch to something else, been using i3wm for a long time.
Try AwesomeWM. Or if you are determined to have a tiling only then QTile is good.
I think I tried Awesome before, I’ll give it another shot, thanks!
Most of the time I’m just using Plasma 5. But I had some great time with sway.
KDE is cool, I used it for a while when I couldn’t figure out why my i3wm config was causing screen tearing. Turns out I had to install
picom
PopOS. I love it.
Agree, the hybrid graphics are amazing but i don’t really like the software center)
Yeah, pop shop is just a pain. It’s why I started learning how to use the command line.
Agree on this one, even when i use Windows, i mostly use
wingetorchocoto install things. So instead of going on the internet and finding where to install a thing, it is just one simple command and i’m there!
Also a fan
I am using NixOS but it’s… difficult.
I was considering giving NixOS a go. What are you finding difficult about it?
I’m using Arch (btw) but I’m running NixOS in a VM to play around & learn it. It’s kind of wild, it’s not like any way I’m used to thinking about an OS at all, so I’m still wrapping my head around it. Super interesting though!
How so? I’ve always been interested in trying that one.

Steam os if this counts
The games are running smoothly? Even the heavy ones?
Vanilla Arch and Endeavour OS. Also looking at trying out Nix OS since I’m pretty curious.

Started out using Ubuntu since 6.06, tried out elementary OS for a bit, went back to using vanilla Gnome on ubuntu and have switched over to Fedora a couple of years ago
Debian always
I recently switched from Arch to Debian. So far am happy with my choice. I had used arch for about 4 years beforehand but I eventually had enough of flaky AUR packages and decided to just build what I need by hand.
My man.
Void Linux at work, Hanna Montana Linux at home.
Isn’t HML a meme distro?
It’s still usable
Pop!_OS
Tumbleweed
Ah, an OpenSuse user!
Really underrated distro. It’s even very good for beginners.
I’ve been using Void as my daily driver on my desktop for about six years now, I can see myself ever switching. Also have used Solus, Arch, Endeavour, and OpenSuSe on my laptop during that time, which have all been good. But I still prefer Void, it just feels so natural to me now.
Void is just Arch but better.
I also used void for quite a long time, but then for some reason after an update my system bricked. Also, for some reason, even when i turned on services in
svthey would not start, take for example pulseaudio.
