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?
Similar here, but 15 years. My first post on the forums, I had already used Arch for a bit there.
I recently switched away half of my machines about 2 months ago, only the servers remain.
It was a good run, but all good things must come to an end.
I initially switched to Arch because there was a third party repository with optimized and modified KDE 3 packages. This was after the 4.0 backlash that I experienced on kubuntu. Arch didn’t ship the latter though IIRC. It was a different time for sure though with
rc.conf
