    Looks pretty much opinionated. I like the colors and the whole of the image. I can agree with Gentoo Linux being very interesting, but not sure about CentOS. In that case I’d rather use Rocky or Alma, though for servers Debian fits my bill.

    I see that you’re trying to bait us, but the Cult of Debian doesn’t talk about the Cult of Debian.

    Wait, I didn’t mean to-

    This tier-list is terrible, but what really makes me really mad is that there’s no damn explanation, and that the tier-list is self-contradictory. Linux Mint good, Debian bad…but Linux Mint is indirect downstream of Debian, and it is really reliable, so the math ain’t working? Arch good, but Artix and Parabola bad - the only difference being that you get init freedom in the latter distros? And seriously, what is KDE Neon and GNOME OS doing over there - they exist to showcase the latest desktop environment beta? And according to your logic, AlmaLinux bad, but CentOS good - when the former came to substitute the dying CentOS? And Guix at the bottom, while it uses Guile Scheme, which is more wide-spread and accepted than the niche half-Haskell half-something-else Nix DSL - and NixOS is somehow on the top-most list? ryantm’s bot is really good and keeps Nix packages upto date, but apart from that, Nix and Guix are the same thing minus their language.

    CentOS good (after they betrayed open source) but Debian bad (even though they remain one of the more independent from corporate influence distros and also serve as the upstream for over half the list)? What even is this nonsense? I agree Ubuntu and its official derivatives maliciously bad and Manjaro completely pointless but that’s about all I agree with.

    Why is green bad and red good? Seems like the color choices are as odd as the opinions in the list.

    I feel like this list was designed to purposefully piss everyone off.

    Also, Debian is the basis for the majority of popular distros out there. “Bad”, my ass.
