  • Still using Slackware to this day.

    So... Yeah.

    • What do you like about Slackware? Just curious.

      • Once you understand Slackware, you realize it is really simple and stable. It comes with an excellent selection of software in the base install, and does not contain any "surprises". I have had uptime in the 200-300+ days range on my home server, updates and security patches are quick and painless, etc.

        In other words, it is a Linux optimized for usability and Unix compatibility, not necessarily user friendliness. It assumes you know what you are doing and gets out of your way.

        • I may try it out someday. I don't see myself daily driving it however. Never say never though. I used Void Linux for awhile and I liked it but I can't daily drive a distro without systemD. Arch has been my go to for a while now. I'm glad Slackware still gets the love it deserves.
