Hey Sup Forums just wondering in your opinions what is the best OS for a student?
Best OS for a student
Gentoo GNU/Linux
there's hundreds of millions of students world wide, doing thousands of different studies.
there's no 'best OS for a student' but i advice a unix based OS for most.
funtoo
gentoo or *bsd
none of them are going to help you graduate with tolerable grades desu
Gentoo
t. a student
xubuntu
Windows 7
Depends on what are you studying
whichever one can do all you need
i mean, if you're for example studying language you most likely won't need much more than an internet browser, something to record and fiddle with sound, and an office suite
I used Ubuntu for a couple of years of my undergrad and then Arch during grad school.
macOS
Has terminal and native Microsoft office and Adobe products. Pretty everything what you need
I'm a philosophy student, What os do you recommend me Sup Forums ?
debian
You don't need Microdick Office in 2017, nor do you need Adobe. Get with it or get left behind.
Not even funny.
i'm sure you'll find installing gentoo to be quite stimulating
depends on what you're majoring in and on your teachers
i found a lot of fuckers still deliver homework in ancient .doc files which are quite a hassle or powerpoints with wordard which suck cock also
libreoffice 5.x has quite got good enough to be able to use it and you can deliver shit in .pdf just in case (if you upload your assignments to cloud).
i run arch linux and a virtual machine for windows necessary software.

Use Solus. The issue with Linux is that there are too many "standards" that no one really follows, then people see a fuck ton of standards and go "I'll make a standard to solve this issue" and they don't end up following it; just adding to the problem. Solus is the first project to enforce a standard to make a coherent experience, and it's stable. EOPKG is shit, but they're working on making it better with an autoremove function coming next release. There is a reason that Solus is growing quickly and that is because they're doing their best to make a Linux based operating system relevant.
THE TARGET
fuck off kevin
Mac you queer
>mac user calls someone else a queer
oh the ironing
Why would one go arch>gentoo?

Xubuntu/MacOS
I'd think literally anything that has internet/wifi capability and supports some sort of office suite can get you by for most degrees.
You don't need Microsoft office. You definitely need a suite capable of exporting in .doc format and whatever the excel extension is. Libre OpenOffice can do those that, and the free version is perfectly capable of doing the basic shit that 90% of college students need to do.

Just use whatever OS you feel productive on
Synchronization between devices is also a real time saver when you are a student
