I’m between distros and looking for a new daily driver for my laptop. What are people daily driving these days? Are there any new cool things to try?

I have been using linux mint recently. I have used nixos and arch in the past. Personally, linux mint uses flatpacks too much for my liking. Although, I might have a warped perspective after using arch. (the aur is crazy big)

    You sound like those people that “can’t use Mastodon” because they have to choose a server first and that’s too complicated.

      You sound like those people who bitch about Microsoft having a monopoly on home computer operating systems while gatekeeping the fuck out of Linux. Get fucked, man.

        Where am I gatekeeping Linux?? Also I don’t care what other people use that’s entirely their problem.

          I would just move on. Some people have a bee in their bonnet and can’t look past their own problems and see why other folks might find certain discussions useful.

          Personally, when I was first looking at switching to Linux (and then through distro hopping) I found discussion like these great as I could see other people’s reasons for choosing the distro they did.
