This is kind of the anti-distro hopping thread. How long have you stayed on a single Linux distribution for your main PC? What about servers?
I’ve been on Debian on and off since 2021, but finally committed to the platform since April of this year.
Before that I was on OpenBSD from 2011 - 2021 for my desktop.
Prior to that, FreeBSD for many years, followed by a few years of distro-hopping various Linux distros (Slackware, Arch, Fedora, simplyMEPIS, and ZenWalk from memory).
How long have you been on your distribution? Do we have anybody here who has been on their current distro for more than a decade?
It could be actually the opposite. If you don’t want to tinker you may want to distro-hop to find out which one is proving the out-of-the-box experience that works the best for you. If you are going to tinker than in many ways the distro matters less because you can just do it all yourself if you want.
Of course there are other features like package availability and stability that will be strongly influenced by distro.
While I am not a distro-hopper I definitely don’t think that all distros are the same. There are significant and important differences that can be worth switching over.
