So we can clearly see the most popular distros and the reasons why people use them, please follow this format:

  • Write the name of the Linux distro as a first-level comment.
  • Reply to that comment with each reason you like the distro as a separate answer.

For example:

  • Distro (first-level comment)
    • Reason (one answer)
    • Other reason (a different answer)

Please avoid duplicating options. This will help us better understand the most popular distros and the reasons why people use them.

    Source Mage (not gonna make nested comments as I’ll be the only who uses it I’m sure 🤭) my favorite feature I think CHOICE. Glibc or musl, systemd or openrc, source-built or flatpak, there’s so many options to choose from, I really enjoy being able to just switch stuff around whenever I want and not being locked into specific choices.
