    I really wish people could get together and just agree to recommend like 1 of 3 distros to people and put their personal y preferences aside.

    Once people actually switch and use Linux for some time they can figure out what is actually best for them.

    I say it should be,

    Mint Kubuntu Maybe bazzite (I’ve never used it, but I’ve heard it’s popular for gaming.)

      We had that consensus with Ubuntu for 15 years but haters had to hate so now we’re here. 😁

        that’s because even people who are using ubuntu for 15 years and don’t really care that much are finally fed up and starting to look for an alternative.

        “get these security updates with ubuntu pro” is the ultimate wake-up call…

      Nah. I’m a gamer and need something with more up to date packages. I can’t rely on Debian / Ubuntu base.

      Fedora and Arch base are my go to.

          Debian and Ubuntu get packages and kernels upwards of 6 months late. If you run newer hardware, you need the most up to date drivers/kernel. Fedora and Arch just offer more bleeding/cutting edge releases.
