NixOS, because all of the config in my system is declared in a few files on GitHub and it has a huge package repo.

Also it has all of the other advantages of a Linux distro, like privacy, speed and customisability.

We're an all-linux household.

• Endeavoros on my gaming desktop
• Garuda on my Framework laptop
• Kubuntu on my partner's Framework laptop
• Endeavoros on my server. Plus a handful of Pis and appliances.

Linux because it runs fast and does what I need it to.

Linyx because it doent get in my way unlike windows, and because I like FOSS. Arch linux in particular, but anything is better than windows or macos. (well, not chromeOS)

Strictly Arch Linux since 2008

I use ArchLinux BTW, because

1. It's very minimal, no bloatware
2. AUR
   ~~3. I feel superior~~
3. It just works™*

Windows 11:

• Games and every Software I need just works
• Everything else runs in the Browser anyway

I used windows for years but i'm Mac now.

Mainly switched because I have an iphone, apple watch, and airpods so it just seemed to make sense.

It does hurt browsing steam now though. CONSTANTLY finding tons of games I want to play and then they're windows only. ):

used a chromebook for a while, that just sucked all around.

Arch Linux for day to day/work, and windows 11 for gaming, or work if needed.

FreeBSD because it just works. I like the consistency of it.

I'm still using Windows 10 on my personal computer. Oh I'll probably have to upgrade someday, some game or other program will come out with exclusivity of some kind and I'll eventually install Windows 11. But for the most part, I don't want to fuck with it, everything works and I really just don't want the hassle.

Running Linux Mint on an old laptop, mostly because it's too old to decently run Windows 10. Don't use it for much, mostly troubleshooting things.

At work the laptops are Windows 10 and I don't think there's a push to update. Of course all the servers are Redhat Enterprise Linux, and that's where the majority of my work takes place.

Windows 10 - work PC because I have to + WSL

Arch - Service laptop - because I hate my free time(just kidding BTW)

PopOS - personal laptop - because of nvidia and gaming

Linux Mint - family laptop - because of maintenance and stability

Ubuntu - Server...well I'm lazy

I use Debian because it's what I've been using for the last twenty-two years.

Windows 10 because I don't want to deal with the hassle of anything else.

MacOS, because Mac hardware. Dual booted with Mint OS.

My desktop runs Windows 11 since I game and use an Nvidia GPU. I also end up having to re-install my OS a bunch if I use Linux on a daily-driver.

Two of my laptops run Ubuntu for greater compatibility with server software I have installed on them (I use them solely for server shit), and one runs Mint. The Mint one is mainly just used to Parsec into my desktop from bed.

Currently trying out NixOS, just switched from Gentoo. Interesting experience so far, will see if the switch will be permanent.

Immutable system, completely separated and well-defined development environments per project, and overall nix is pretty nice.

Laptop: popos Reason: 2 hours battery on windows, 8-12 hours on popos due to sleep issues on windows and Nvidia GPU not turning off on windows.

Desktop: Windows, too many apps without relevant replacements.

Servers: Linux or bsd(depending on vm/reason)

I use Arch btw.

It's just clean and simple. I've never had a problem with reinstalling things, so I love the idea of a bare-bones operating system where I can install what I need and nothing else. I swapped to Manjaro for a while because my last attempt at arch became unstable, but I've got a good 8 or so years of Linux under my belt now. I feel much more comfortable maintaining rolling release. Also the AUR is unmatched. I'm spoiled by it.

Btw I use Archlinux

I switched to it 50% for the AUR: I regularly install softwares not from the classic repos, and the AUR is a godsend compared to cloning a Github, make install and thinking about updating it. The rest is a mix of the ArchWiki, its lightness and openness.

Artix Linux, cuz systemd isn’t minimal enough for my insanity, and I don’t have time to compile Gentoo rn

Xubuntu because I am lazy these days.

Arch because of the neofetch

Archcraft with hyprland because it works exactly the way i want it to.

Chromebook because I just dont fucking care anymore.

M2 Macbook Air for personal use and my freelance work and an AMD Ryzen 5600 with a Radeon 6700 XT with Ubuntu for ML/AI hobby work and Windows 11 for some minor gaming here and there.
