Windows 11:

• Games and every Software I need just works
• Everything else runs in the Browser anyway

We’re an all-linux household.

• Endeavoros on my gaming desktop
• Garuda on my Framework laptop
• Kubuntu on my partner’s Framework laptop
• Endeavoros on my server. Plus a handful of Pis and appliances.

I used windows for years but i’m Mac now.

Mainly switched because I have an iphone, apple watch, and airpods so it just seemed to make sense.

It does hurt browsing steam now though. CONSTANTLY finding tons of games I want to play and then they’re windows only. ):

used a chromebook for a while, that just sucked all around.

Linux because it runs fast and does what I need it to.

I use ArchLinux BTW, because

1. It’s very minimal, no bloatware
2. AUR
   3. I feel superior
3. It just works™*

Strictly Arch Linux since 2008

NixOS, because all of the config in my system is declared in a few files on GitHub and it has a huge package repo.

Also it has all of the other advantages of a Linux distro, like privacy, speed and customisability.

I’m still using Windows 10 on my personal computer. Oh I’ll probably have to upgrade someday, some game or other program will come out with exclusivity of some kind and I’ll eventually install Windows 11. But for the most part, I don’t want to fuck with it, everything works and I really just don’t want the hassle.

Running Linux Mint on an old laptop, mostly because it’s too old to decently run Windows 10. Don’t use it for much, mostly troubleshooting things.

At work the laptops are Windows 10 and I don’t think there’s a push to update. Of course all the servers are Redhat Enterprise Linux, and that’s where the majority of my work takes place.

Btw I use Archlinux

I switched to it 50% for the AUR: I regularly install softwares not from the classic repos, and the AUR is a godsend compared to cloning a Github, make install and thinking about updating it. The rest is a mix of the ArchWiki, its lightness and openness.

I use Debian because it’s what I’ve been using for the last twenty-two years.

FreeBSD because it just works. I like the consistency of it.

Xubuntu because I am lazy these days.

Artix Linux, cuz systemd isn’t minimal enough for my insanity, and I don’t have time to compile Gentoo rn

Archcraft with hyprland because it works exactly the way i want it to.

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS on HDD and Windows 10 AME on SSD, on a ThinkPad. Best of all worlds. Works incredibly without hassles.

Also, I have Windows XP with MS Office 2007 in it, as a VM on Linux, which incredibly reduces my needs to use Windows directly.
