>Gentoo

Nothing else exists

use ubunto on destop and debian on servers

That's the guy did bangbros or something with a friend and couldn't get it up right?

>when the porn actress asked if he was gay or something in vid

>Antergos
Arch, minus the installation that keeps normies away.
>Manjaro
Manjaro is to Arch as to Ubuntu is to Debian. They hold back packages from Arch repos for 2 weeks.
>Gentoo
Compile everything from source. More DIY than Arch.
>Debian
Alright distro, nothing special, just works?
>Ubuntu
Babby's first GNU/Linux. It takes severe autism to hate Ubuntu.
>SUSE
Don't know, haven't given it a chance so far.

>TempleOS
Fast, efficient, has games, no network connection except to God
>Debian
zero updates, use as server only
>Ubuntu
Debian but actively worked on. Pretty easy to set up - just be careful which PPAs you use outside the native "app store"

Install Gentoo

At first I thought they fell for the orange meme but they were literally part black apparently

Antegos is great. Just not the xfeces version

Nubian blood brothers

I wonder what OS they use

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Debian Testing is best, pic related
Once you get comfortable head to unstable

They all suck in their own special way

Why all distros have retarded names?
The only cool name is Arch

Because they are more worldly than you, you simpleton

t. Ubuntu user since 2004

Void is a pretty cool name. Unsurprisingly, it gets compared to Arch.

>Kids
^.+buntu$, Arch
>Pros
Debian stable, Gentoo, RedHat, Fedora
>Autist
Debian sid, Debian testing, unless you're a package maintainer or beta tester, Manjaro and other shit which names I don't even know.

>manjaro
>autist
why?

>debian based distros
debian, mint, ubuntu, etc
mint is primarily desktop, debian leans towards server use, ubuntu is both
by far the most popular distros
popular among people who use their computers to get paid
great stability, a bit of a lag on updates for certain distros

>arch based distros
arch, manjaro, antergos
popular among people who don't use their computers to get paid
cutting edge releases, but frequently breaks
great ricing scene

>red hat
RHEL, CentOS, Fedora
Fedora is the desktop os, RHEL is a non-free server OS with support contracts from Redhat. Centos is RHEL without support.
Very stable OS
not much features

You run stable on your daily driver? Is it a server?
Testing is really what you should be using unless you're running it on a server, it's only a tiny bit less stable than stable itself. Unstable is just for fun

Gentoo and Debian stable + backports, I moved to Debian just a couple of weeks ago. Gentoo is pretty nice for me but there're reasons related to mobility and fast recovery.

My main idea that I use the desktop computer for work and I don't want to find it eventually broken when I have to do work.

that's the main three families. there's a bunch more in the debian family i didn't mention (deepin, zorin, elementary, kali, these are all basically debian with different DEs slapped on)

I'll follow up with a few oddballs:

>opensuse
krauts

>reactos
attempt to clone the NT kernel. not actually linux, kek

>kali
another debian fork, gets special mention because MUH HAXXORS. it's just debian with nmap and nessus and shit like that pre-installed

>solus
like reactos but for gnome instead of NT

Are there other disadvantages to Debian-based/Ubuntu? Why do so many people leave it for Arch?

>krauts

that's r-racist

because they are absolutely /convinced/ they /neeeeeed/ cutting edge software, mom!

they're ricer morons who give up stability and predictability for the ability to use a package manager to install RCs instead of compiling tarballs (which you can do on any debian system if you want, and not fuck up the rest of the software on your system at the same time)

yep

Arch and its derivatives have pretty much every package thanks to AUR whereas on Debian, you need to install PPA's and all sorts of fuckery. Also pacman is way faster than apt-get.

b-but my employer pays for RHEL

1) More cutting edge software, with the downside of less stability (not a huge problem if it's your personal machine)

2) More customizability

3) Lower barrier of entry to creating packages yourself. Writing a pkgbuild is much more straightforward than creating a deb

4) Fewer choices made for you. One good example is that the default nginx configuration on ubuntu systems is made so that nginx resembles apache. I hate this shit and tear it out immediately, but on Arch I don't have to. nginx is just nginx.

There's more but I'm tired.

It's hard to install. Even Linus Torvalds couldn't install Debian.

>Antergos
Bug of the week and keep a close fucking eye on errors in pacman -Syyu.
Gives you a good base with ZFS installer.

Arch is for enthusiasts who learn Linux but can't handle Gentoo. The Arch derivatives are who people too lazy who can't handle even Arch.

PPA is an Ubuntu thing. Debian doesn't imply that you will scrounge the whole internet and install shit.

>Debian on server
Rev up that CentOS installer.

Linus has a very specific taste, for example he uses a heavy modified and rewritten emacs for programming.

>Antergos
>Manjaro
Arch-based preconfigured newbie distros.
>Ubuntu
pre-configured debian with a new logo recommended for beginners
>OpenSUSE
rpm-based package managers are a pain, OpenSUSE has Yast which is supposedly god-like. Not very newb-friendly
The Arch Wiki is surprisingly handy when it comes to fixing broken shit, shit almost never breaks but when it does you have a forum full of sweaty nerds there for your documentation.

Arch is a newbie distro too but it's for newbies who don't afraid to dive into CLI from the very beginning. Arch isn't convenient for server environments when you have to install it and configure on 100 machines.

I misread that last part and was gonna tear you apart. Agree, all workstations should roll Fedora or Debian so the IT department doesn't burst into flames with "muh gombuder wond worg :ddd"

It takes an oldfag to hate Ubuntu. I used it back in the 8.04 era and it sucked balls. Updates would break shit and the simplest fix would be to reinstall the os.
I never truly found Linux until I found Arch.

The Arch Wiki is very good thanks for enthusiasts who beta-tested and wrote manuals before the users of conservative distros start to use it.

lol that was me, i didn't use linux until now purely because of old ubuntu

Sup Forums likes to shit on Arch but its community has had a huge beneficial impact on the Linux community as a whole. Imagine if the Ubuntu forums was still the place you'd go to for Linux help.

>The Arch Wiki is very good thanks for enthusiasts who beta-tested and wrote manuals before the users of conservative distros start to use it.
I said sweaty nerds already :V. Just kidding, respect to those guys still applying home-made fixes for common problems to the wiki.
this, the amount of shit I've fixed rather than broken through the wiki and aur packages is amazing.

God no! That's even more unstable than Ubuntu! Give me a good Debian server any day of the week.

How unstable is Debian sid compared to a distro like arch?

I started using Ubuntu from 11.04 for work. There're were breaks but I think that they were due to my lax experience.

Which distro?

I've used Debian Testing for 2+ years and it's never broken on me.
BUT I completely understand your logic

Honestly, that was half of my breakages. Had never used Linux before, so I derped around too much.

Probably slightly more stable. Arch has gotten to be a really stable os now.

IIRC Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) and OpenSUSE

now I use Ubuntu Gnome

The idea is that Linux isn't just about desktop, Arch users solve merely the desktop issues. Linux has a broader range of problems: such things as configuring ports, kernel for virtual machines, configuring Linux for an embedded system, Android patches, and so forth and so on. In those cases Debian wiki or Redhat, due to KVM is their invention, may contain more insightful information.

I have nothing to add to this other than dubs of truth.

Which distro is best for gayman?

So? It's not like the desktop scene is any less important.

Arch or Gentoo

Actually it is. Linux servers are the crucial part of the modern internet infrastructure and content services, it's the main application of Linux, security, reliability in the server environment. Client machines with Linux are less important.

Linux on the desktop is small for now but its attractiveness to emerging markets will depend on how well it performs as a desktop OS. Microsoft is in decline and Apple computers aren't accessible to most of the world. Making Linux usable on the desktop is just as important as making sure it performs well on servers. Desktop Linux is for forward thinkers.

>microsoft is in decline
>will probably only lose .2% market share

come on m8

I doubt Microsoft will still be the monopoly it is in 20-30 years. It's naive to think Windows will dominate the desktop for the rest of human civilization and there's no reason to let some other corporation swoop in with their own proprietary OS just because Linux never became more than a server OS that's used by hobbyists on the desktop.

pretty good, by far the easiest to use, people will call you a faggot for not being a masochist though

pacman is just so much more nicer than apt
plus you don't have to worry about uninstalling half the operating system when you uninstall gnome on debian, because you build from the ground up
some shit tends to break in ubuntu if you start playing around also

>opensuse

But in seriousness, openSuSE is very nice

>>gentoo, arch

Gentoo is very configurable, companies use it in production. Arch is for enthusiasts who like to tinker their desktop.
>>manjaro, antergos
>shameful attempts at making autism not look like autism
100% agree.
>>debian
>never trust people who work for free
The second oldest after Slackware distro with a large community.

I know nothing about it.
>>ubuntu
>pretty good, by far the easiest to use, people will call you a faggot for not being a masochist though
Ubuntu is a default distro for many simple tasks such as a simple server or a workstation for an employee in Google, it has the big community of lamers.

>workstation for an employee in Google
Does that mean it's for the tech illiterate?

It means nothing actually. It's simple as a default solution. Google uses Ubuntu a lot, for example their default configuration for building Android from source is for Ubuntu.
