For me it’s PeppermintOS.

I started my Linux adventure a few years ago, and haven’t owned a Windows PC since.

I currently use Arch on my main rig, and I wanted to install Linux on two old laptops that I found laying around in my house

I then remembered the first distro I ever used, which is PeppermintOS, and I was amazed at the latest updates they released.

They even have a mini ISO now to do a net-install with no bloat, with a Debian or Devuan base.

Sadly, I believe the founder passed away a few years ago, which is why I was really happy to see the continuation of this amazing project.

    Just curious, revisiting this old thread…

    I was a Arch Linux fan for at least 5 years. Tried all the main ones except gentoo.

    Have you tried VoidLinux?

    … And… Still on NixOS after 2 years?

      Wow, I had completely forgotten this comment.

      I am definitely still using Nixos on all my machines. As I have learned how to do more with Nix code it has only got better.

      I have not tried VoidLinux. I actually dont think I have ever heard of it. Or maybe I have just forgotten. The package system does sound interesting. If I remember to I might try it out in a VM.
