Debian Linux.

Of the machines I own: 2 are running Ubuntu server (one for hosting a Minecraft server, the other for testing as I'm still relatively new to Linux), a NAS running trueNAS, A laptop running dual boot Windows 10 and Kali, and my main machine running Windows 10 with Kali and Ubuntu running though WSL. As I am typing this, I am installing Mint on one of the drives of my main PC. I've been putting it off for way too long as the majority of the programs and games I use do not have Linux support.

DietPi (debian) on all my ARM servers, Fedora-CoreOS on all the x86-64 servers, a pi400 as my desktop running fedora, SteamOS on the steam deck.

Kubuntu 24.04. When 24.10 is out I'll switch to it (usually a week or two later because I'm lazy and don't feel like rebooting). I've got two desktops and two laptops running that. Then there's the HTPC which also running Kubuntu with font scaling set real high to make it easy to read stuff from the couch (that includes Firefox with lots of GUI scaling changes; uBlock Origin makes it a fantastic anime watching station 👍).

Mine and my daughter's phones have KDE Connect so we can control the HTPC without having to get up to get the wireless mouse/keyboard 😁

The three Raspberry Pis in my house are all running the latest Raspbian image.

My wife's laptop is a Chromebook.

Dual booting NixOS and Windows 11 on my desktop, macOS on my laptop.

I’d get rid of Windows if it wasn’t for some games that are annoying on Linux.

Windows 11, but I just finally got around to switching back to Garuda Linux last night. We'll see how it goes. Still have a lot of headaches and assorted annoyances to work out.

[–] aodhsishaj@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (5 children)

Why not a more stable and proven distro like Fedora workstation? I game on steam on an old P1 running Fedora 40 if that's of any worth.

Win7 with microcode patches from 0patch.

[–] Mwa@thelemmy.club 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

dont know that existed the patching microcode

[–] Angry_Autist@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah neither did I till I signed up for their service.

Full disclosure: I have no compensation relationship with 0patch, I've just been a full retail customer for years and highly recommend them to anyone who doesn't want to move away from win10 when it hits EoL.

Fedora / Windows 11

I wonder how many updates I'm behind on w11, haven't been there in a spell

[–] NaoPb@eviltoast.org 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

On my gaming systems I still use Windows 10.

On my internet browsing and writing systems I'm using ubuntu or linux mint (debian)

All my retro computers use period correct operating systems like (ms-dos 6.22 with) windows 3.11, 95, 98, 2000, XP.

[–] whotookkarl@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

I think the path i took was something like win98, ME, 2000/NT, fedora core, Ubuntu, Arch, Manjaro, OSX/MacOS but also still using Windows on a corpo job laptop & Linux on work servers.

[–] Presi300@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (3 children)

I multiboot 4 OSs...

Windows 10... some old, pirated patch.

Fedora 40

Gentoo

Arch (my current daily driver)
