I think it’s safe to say that most people here have used more than one Linux distribution, and their first distro wasn’t their last. I’m curious, what were the steps that took you from your first Linux distro to what you currently use? What were the reasons you switched away each time? Would you ever switch back to an old distro? Are you happy with your current one?

    Reading everyone’s journey is making me want to distro hop again… My first distro was Linux Mint. It was recommended to me by someone I met at the library. I then tried Manjaro. I really enjoyed it but every now and again my system would freeze and sometimes wouldn’t even boot. I think tried Solus next. Or maybe Antergos? Peppermint was cute, and Pop_OS was really polished. I know the most recent one was KDE neon. KDE is my favorite desktop because it’s so flashy and I found it the easiest to customize. Right now I’m on EndevourOS. I wanted to get into Arch but I was kinda afraid and so I thought this would be a nice intro to it. I’m thinking of trying Artix next, oh or maybe FreeBSD!
