I have already tried out Linux Mint. But I want to try out other distros.

PC specs:

  • Intel Core i5-10400

  • 16 GB of RAM DDR4

  • 1 TB NVME SSD

  • 256 GB SATA SSD

  • Intel UHD 630

Your PC can run any distro smoothly. What are you looking for that Mint doesn’t provide?

Personally, I’m looking for reproducible environments where if you create a lock file of your packages, you will get the exact same system on another machine if you copy it over

Maybe you would like an immutable distro such as Fedora Silverblue?

I’m already using NixOS, which is even more powerful since it can configure my software as well as my system

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.

Rules

  • Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
  • No misinformation
