I’d like to settle on a distro, but none of them seem to click for me. I want stability more than anything, but I also value having the latest updates (I know, kind of incompatible).

I have tested Pop!_Os, Arch Linux, Fedora, Mint and Ubuntu. Arch and Pop being the two that I enjoyed the most and seemed the most stable all along… I am somewhat interested in testing NixOS although the learning curve seems a bit steep and it’s holding me back a bit.

What are you using as your daily drive? Would you recommend it to another user? Why? Why not?

    Arch for me, I use Aur as a crutch to avoid compiling and managing source projects, i love pacman and rolling releases, and it’s very easily customizable (ofc once you learn the system).

      I wish I could have the AUR without the rolling release, or more realistically I use arch without utilitizing the rolling release. I’m on such shitty + spotty + capped at 100gb I only update my system once a month. Haven’t had problems though, so I guess im not complaining. Updating my windows VMs is significantly worse
