This is kind of the anti-distro hopping thread. How long have you stayed on a single Linux distribution for your main PC? What about servers?
I’ve been on Debian on and off since 2021, but finally committed to the platform since April of this year.
Before that I was on OpenBSD from 2011 - 2021 for my desktop.
Prior to that, FreeBSD for many years, followed by a few years of distro-hopping various Linux distros (Slackware, Arch, Fedora, simplyMEPIS, and ZenWalk from memory).
How long have you been on your distribution? Do we have anybody here who has been on their current distro for more than a decade?
@unix_joe I’ve got one machine that’s been on Ubuntu for close to 10 years, and another that’s been on arch for almost as long. Thinking about trying Debian’s new release to replace Ubuntu.
Yeah, I took my kids off Ubuntu because the snaps were killing update times, and gave them pure Debian earlier this year. With dash to dock extension, I set it up to look just like the Ubuntu they knew, and it’s been fine.
