I’d like to settle on a distro, but none of them seem to click for me. I want stability more than anything, but I also value having the latest updates (I know, kind of incompatible).

I have tested Pop!_Os, Arch Linux, Fedora, Mint and Ubuntu. Arch and Pop being the two that I enjoyed the most and seemed the most stable all along… I am somewhat interested in testing NixOS although the learning curve seems a bit steep and it’s holding me back a bit.

What are you using as your daily drive? Would you recommend it to another user? Why? Why not?

    Unpopular opinion: Antix Linux for workstation, because:

    1. It’s Debian
    2. Very lightweight (100mb on RAM)
    3. Live to RAM
    4. Frugal installation
    5. Small size ISO (1gb) with full function utility
    6. Flexibel recovery, from old to modern system
    7. Responsive (no systemd)
    8. Retro-kind WM (icebox-wm), perfectly match on retro system
