So we can clearly see the most popular distros and the reasons why people use them, please follow this format:
- Write the name of the Linux distro as a first-level comment.
- Reply to that comment with each reason you like the distro as a separate answer.
For example:
- Distro (first-level comment)
- Reason (one answer)
- Other reason (a different answer)
Please avoid duplicating options. This will help us better understand the most popular distros and the reasons why people use them.
CalcProgrammer1@lemmy.ml1·1 year ago- Packages are kept up to date so it’s often the first distro to support new hardware, APIs, etc.
- AUR provides a huge library of software that isn’t often in package manager repos.
- Rolling release so you don’t have to deal with repository upgrades every 6 months to 2 years.
