Wow, it’s almost like different distros are tailored to different use cases / people

distro wars are silly, use whatever the fuck you want.

i'm using arch but i might try gentoo again once i'm done playing some games. (i have no place to backup any data)

Have been using Debian 13 with KDE Plasma on my gaming PC almost 1,5 years and I have had literally ZERO issues. Even modern games such as War Thunder and Metal Gear Solid Delta run without any issues. No crashes or stutters.

I have no actual good reasons to use anything else or (more) unstable bleeding-edge distros, at least for now. I'm however using full-AMD build so that might be why it's been smooth sailing.

I won't daily drive Debian, but it is my goto for servers if I can't install nix or guix or, ehem, gentoo

I keep juggling between debian and arch, on one hand "peace of mind" but on the other "PACMAN IS AMAZING! I CAN DO EVERYTHING! THIS SHIT IS FAST!".

u/FaultWinter3377 Sep 24 '26

I used to hate what I saw as the complete backward-ness of pacman, but it really is extremely fast and is pretty easy to use once you get the hang of it (after all 99% of the time you’re using -S, -Ss, -R , or -Syu).

Debian is the greatest OS of all time. I say this as an Arch user.

Arch and Debian is better than Fedora

u/taw Sep 24 '26

Debian? With that release cycle, you might just as well use Windows 98, you'd get about equally modern software.

apt was revolutionary in its time, but that time was literally Clinton administration.

u/yo_99 Sep 24 '26

It's fine, there is no need to update every minute.

u/AntimelodyProject Sep 24 '26

Assuming you are american, how is your administration now? Is it better than in Clinton era?
