What distros have you tried and thought, "Nope, this one's not for me"?
What distros have you tried and thought, "Nope, this one's not for me"?
I've been using Linux Mint since forever. I've never felt a reason to change. But I'm interested in what persuaded others to move.
You're viewing a single thread.
Debian, don't like apt.
Arch, breaks too much.
NixOs, just don't need the tools it provides.
Any fork of a mainline distro because it's never as good as the root.I used arch for a while, but got sick of running repairs every few weeks. I use Gentoo now, it's stable and good. I have a fuck ton of ram and a good cpu, I also take advantage of binary packages from time to time. I don't really need to install new things that much after having done the initial install.
For the record, Arch breaking at all is probably entirely on you.
The arch breaks were always related to keys. I would run an update and there would always be an error related to the keys. Never had a breakage due to confs.
Usually you can fix that with
pacman -S archlinux-keyringI know that, but I still hate having to. Having that as a common issue is just dumb, to me.
out of curiosity, what was breaking in arch for you?
