If you're not using linux...

I've recently made a new post regarding a guide on distros!
https://dev.to/rainedev/linux-distributions-a-short-recommendation-guide-3498

Then, what are you doing?
Linux is the best, switch now.


But for real, Linux is open source, there is no telemetry, You can customize it to what you want it to be, it's lightweight and honestly it's just epic.

You can install it in 15~30 minutes and then you can enjoy your free and open source software!


The (basic) distro's
These distro's are great for beginners.
Elementary OS (Mac like)
Zorin OS (Windows-y)
Solus OS (Also Windows-y)
Ubuntu (Mac/Windows 11-y)
Manjaro (Arch-based and in many flavours.)

"Hands on" distro's
These distro's are great for doing it all yourself.
Arch (What I use.)
Gentoo (Very hands on)
Void (in musl version and glibc version)
kiss (super sexy distro)

GOD TIER
you're crazy to use this lmao
LFS (absolutely your distro, very hard)
