I’m wondering what the current favorite distros are besides the most popular ones like Arch, Debian and Fedora.

    LMDE, MX, Ubuntu etc are based on Debian. Mint is based on Ubuntu, so Debian. Chimera/Endeavour are based on Arch, etc.

    In the linux world, you have a linux kernel, systemd or init, a bunch of gnu utils, a window system like X or Wayland, whatever DE you want (Xfce, gnome, kde, name it) and a packaging system (apt, yum, pacman), but for me, it’s all the same.

    If you want something different, try a BSD distro then? FreeBSD, OpenBSD, GhostBSD, etc
