From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Moved away from Ubuntu due to SNAP. Never looked back.
Shadow updating their Linux app to support anything other than Ubuntu 20.04...
It's the only reason I use it, and it's weird and bad that they only support that distro and version (which has reached EOL). I've talked to them about it and all they say is "We see the need from users for support of newer Ubuntu versions and other distros" which is such a nothingburger of an answer.
I spent three days with several other distros and Ubuntu versions trying to figure out a fix but sadly never found one.
I just wanna use Linux Mint or anything other than Ubuntu, especially a 5 year old version.
I'm attracted by Alpine Linux, but it lacks an official way to use glibc for the programs that unfortunately use some glibc extension...
I use Fedora Asahi Remix currently, and I want to switch to NixOS but am uncertain about the MacBook support, and even if it was good switching would take longer than it's worth unless my current installation stops working for whatever reason
Its mostly if I see the distro as unmaintainable (looking at gentoo), too much of a hassle to keep updated (Like tumbleweed on a PC i just about never use), or generally not fit for my purpose (If it dosent have packages I need, forces flatpaks, or is generally built in a way I dont find it comfortable to use
Why is tumbleweed to much of a Hassel to keep updated? You can update it once a decade and still be up and running.
When the PC is connected to a Beamer you can only See at might, and when its night you dont have 10 minutes + reboot time because your friend wants to watch netflix, even having to update once in a decade is too many updates
What did you end up with then? Just curious. Every Linux distros or even any system at this point suffers that problem.
Went with void for my 4 core 1,5 ghz thin client and opensuse leap for the home theater pc
Both are pretty much set and forget.
I'm on Nobara for 3 years now after spending a year on manjaro. Nobara is pretty sweet, performance is top of the line, its stable and I get packages decently fast.
But I hate not being able to use discover to update.
So I'd switch if something had a cooler fetch logo and was able to fix that.
I'm familiar with the linux system ive done gentoo and arch but why I use distros like nobara and fedora is because i can't be fucked to keep up with what the latest optimisation are and then implement them.
The slightest praise for another distro / other feature that I fixate on for a month. I tend to hop.
Having broken lts-kernel and broken 6.15. At the same time. But the zen kernel saved me. So I guess if it was 3 broken kernels at the same time I would switch distro, haha. Lts was broken amdgpu kernel module, worse then sleep issue for mainline.
Hardware bugs/support, and Snap.
Despite using MX only for a relatively short time, just messing around in a VM for a long period of time would increase my odds of switching to something else*.
*when I need to switch to something else or find something a lot better
For the 'I use ... BTW' meme to say something else.
No, actually, I can't think of anything. I'm pretty comfortable with it at this point. Been running it since 2013...
If all the mirrors for pacman somehow got taken down, probably would switch to something corporate like Ubuntu.
I’ve been in Pop!_OS for a lot of years now; and Ubuntu/Mint before that. The lack of updates in Pop!_OS (not Cosmic!) is starting to wear me thin; the U22.04 basis is starting to get a bit threadbare and their App Store has always been broken— but now it seems even more brokener.
The Cosmic Alphas don’t work well on my machine, Wayland is still pretty unstable and some of the apps I have to use just don’t work with it at all. I’ve got way too much to do to go and try to debug it or hack it or even give up and go try another distro. When they take Cosmic out of beta, if it doesn’t work for me I’m just going to drop and go back to hopping. Or worse, I may just go back to MacOS 100% except for when I’m working on some server-side shit.
