If you have been using Linux for +10 years, what are you using now?
Been using Linux for over a decade, and last few years Ubuntu (on desktops/laptops), plus Debian on servers, but been looking to switch to something less “Canonical”-y for a long time (since the Amazon search fiasco, pretty much).
Appreciate recommendations or just an interesting discussion about people’s experiences, there are no wrong answers.
Edit: Thanks for the lots of interesting answers and discussions. I will try a few of the suggestions in a VM.


Ubuntu was my entry back in 2012. Started using Ubuntu family seriously 10 ya. Then sparky Linux (Debian based) then manjaro for a long time. Jumped into Archlinux in c 2019 and have been having chilling exp with arch+KDE. Linux mint (Debian) was among the best, but settled in arch. Tried others in the process and did not work - fedora, open SUSE, elementary, solus. I m sure they are pretty good, but I see no point in learning them for no extra benefit.
Only now, with age classification shit in systemd, I feel motivated to try other distro. But it is a hassle.
