What is your favourite linux distro?

It's in the title.

Xubuntu for casuals
Arch for hobbyists

These are the only answers. We have this thread a million times a day. Fuck off.

Ubuntu 16.04
Unity/Compiz

Works OOB, 16.04 is the most stable one yet with most of the issues resolved for laptop users like wifi and audio.

Arch. It just works, unlike Ubuntu.

I run Archlinux, but I'd like to install some BSD (FreeBSD or OpenBSD).

If that's what you want....*zip*

I had Ubuntu for awhile but it seemed like a amazon circle jerk

I have an old laptop not in use, think I'll put Arch on it.

remove unity-webapps-commmon, amazon is gone. however, you need it for unity-tweak-tool

Amazon is just a launcher,

How though? I just installed a few days ago and after removing the shopping lens shit I don't see anything having to do with Amazon on my computer. Is there something I'm missing?

I like the tweak tool tho xD

logos if i could actually find a way to install it from the live cd mode. afaik there is no way to do this.

and vbefore you fags say it's dead it's still nice to have a pre rice and pre-debloated arch installer on hand in case i find a pc that has windows 10 and i get that urge, you know that, autistic fit in the back of the head.

Fedora

Gotta like red hat

Anything Systemd free. No nsa for me today no sir

Terry Davis, a man inflicted with paranoid schizophrenia, runs Ubuntu Unity on his system.

you're joking, right?

xubuntu is way to go

Could someone recommend me some linux to install on my laptop, it should be able to dual boot with windows 8

[spoiler]Mint Debian Edition[/spoiler]

I use ubuntu server. Couldnt care less as long as it is debian or ubuntu. Anything else is autism.

I dual boot win 8.1 with Debian, but I rarely boot into it tho. All my work is done in Windows, and if I want to taste Linux, I've cygwin and virtual box. Waste of time and space.

>Waste of time and space
Just like cygwin.

Debian. Simple.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Solus at the moment

Mods can we ban the word solus yet?

Not before we ban gentoo

Memes aside.
There is no reason to use anything else.

openSUSE Tumbleweed

Pure Linux
I download a fresh copy of the kernel from linux . com and I plug it into my bios directly
For my wm I use a pure command line client
My browser is a little known firefox -> cli converter (you wouldn't know about it)
My package manager is me, I manually download the source for everything, including the dependencies B)
I never experience any bugs because I build it all myself. If there is an update to the kernel I copy and paste it into the source and build it myself then patch it into my running instance
I hope you are having fun with your 'arch', kid
