Iâm new to #Lemmy and making myself feel at home by posting a bit!
My first Linux distribution was elementary OS in early March 2020. Since then, Iâve tried Manjaro, Arch Linux, Fedora, went back to Manjaro, and since early January 2023, Iâve landed on Debian as my home in the #Linux world.
What was your first Linux distro?
Slackware in 1996(?), then SuSE when they came up.
I then tried a bit every once in a while, but really never got fully comfortable with it on a desktop.
A few weeks ago I bought a new Desktop PC, which is now running with the Arch-fork #endeavouros and I really love it.
Arch, btw
It was the distro that my friend uses all the time, and Iâve had to use his laptop on occasion so Iâm somewhat familiar with the distro, enough so that Iâve installed it on persistent USBs before and already chosen it as my next OS after Windows (I would switch now, but I rode Windows 7 till the end date, so I figured Iâd ride out 10 until the final day this October)
Also! Gender fluid hello!! It made me so insanely happy to see that flag in the Linux terminal, I feel so seen!! It feels like trans girls hog all the Linux spotlight this side of the fediverse, Iâm happy for them! But I still donât feel like I have a proper community where I belong, especially since I stay off of all other mainstream social media >.<
So seeing another enby, another gender fluid especially, for the literal first time since I made my lemmy account just makes me so ecstatic!! Weâre so rare x3
Anyways, thank u for existing and simply posting this, seeing another makes me feel seen and I canât really express enough how unreasonably happy something so small just made me c:
Thank you! And I should sleep so good night also lol
Red Hat, back when that was a distro. It was a long time ago now and my toying with it didnât last long; and began an obsession with hardware RAIDâŠ
genderfluid fetch spotted!!! also im not sure which was first but i use arch and openbsd ;3
Linux Mint. I made a dumb decision to install it right away thinking itâs just like Windows. Boy was i wrong. Took me years until I felt ready to switch to Linux.
I use Arch BTW
