      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.

        Try AwesomeWM. Or if you are determined to have a tiling only then QTile is good.

        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

        Agree on this one, even when i use Windows, i mostly use winget or choco to 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!

      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!

      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.

    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.

      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 sv they would not start, take for example pulseaudio.
