    OpenSUSE Tumbleweed in my case.

      Well, looking at the comments I’m not so sure about that anymore… more like Linux as well.

        4 or 5 Windows users and I think none exclusively. Guess they were among the first, because now there are at least 10 Linux exclusives.

      Same. It just keeps chugging along whatever I throw at it, so I stick with it.

      I’m waiting to see what my main machine will do when I’ll finally get to bring it back online and it finds it has 1 1/2 or 2 years of updates to install though 🤔.

        Make sure you update the mirror list and repository keys first, then read Arch news and do whatever they say needs manual intervention since your last update. Then you can update everything from the core repo and finally the AUR. Don’t reboot until you’re done with all the steps.

        Also might be a good idea to read through https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/System_maintenance for additional considerations.

          I think I’ll just zypper dup and let it figure stuff out by itself as I tend to trust it to work.

          But thanks all the same.

    I wrote my own OS leveraging a custom punch-card computer built from redstone in Minecraft.

    Windows 11

    I’m one of the few people who genuinely thinks it’s a good OS despite MS’ shenanigans

      I just get bothered that even on very modern tech my CPU is under load even when idle in Win11 such that the fan is spooling up. I’m convinced they’re sneaking distributed AI compute into personal PCs. Doesn’t happen on my Linux install.

      Clearly a bot.

      Move along humans, no brain to engage with here. Let them sit in their ignorance while the real people get on with things.

    Manjaro Linux. It has treated me well for two years. (Yes, I know about the controversy, I have had no problems with the distro for the last two years).

      Same here, sometimes I feel actual shame, which is ridiculous, but it works for me and hasn’t let me down so far in the past years

        I have used Manjaro at work and on personal devices for maybe 10 years and it has served me well. When I got a new computer this year, I saw many recommending EndeavourOS instead, so I decided to use that instead. I don’t understand the controversy to be honest … endeavour is a-ok, but Manjaro was more stable imho, and if I have to do it again I might go back to Manjaro.

        You shouldn’t feel shame, the reasons Manjaro haters give are moronic. There is that one site they love to parrot and every reason on it is stupid… when you ask them about it directly, they don’t even understand half the reasons. Manjaro is awesome! It was the first distro that got me to stick with Linux and uninstall Windows. And this after previously trying it multiple times, as far back as Mandrake Linux. Manjaro converted me.

    I use Windows 3.1

    Because of the limitations, I hired someone to create a program that yells letters and characters individually one by one on a text based browser.
    It may sound tedious but I refuse to upgrade explanation mark explanation mark explanation mark
