Just curious to see what people are up to. I've been using Nixos for a while. It's fabulous and I have absolutely no reason to switch, but part of me is itching to hop to Debian or maybe OpenSUSE. How about you?

I don't. I just use Debian, because it's the oldest, most popular, most (API) stable distro out there. I have zero needs to switch. I'm sick of OS' (i.e. Windows) that keep moving/switching/changing things around in massive ways, just for the sake of change. I know they do it to stay fresh in the market, but that's simply not it for me anymore.

it’s the oldest, most popular, most (API) stable distro out there I'd say that's Slackware.
