What is a good linux disro that doesn't make me look like a complete spaz? Right now I use Zorin OS (Ubuntu fork). I would like to try something intermediate, not something like Ubuntu nor something as complex as gentoo or arch. Also not something completely useless. I hope this isn't to much to ask, thanks anons.
Intermediate Linux OS
You know the answer.
Mandingo. It's Arch Linux, but it's even easier to use than just typing in commands from the wiki. You still get the AUR but you don't have to know anything about bash to use it.
Fedora with a spin of your choice. The drawbacks are its name and adding rpmfusion after installing. Else it gives you a pretty good starter kit to be not completly lost, but doesn't overflow you with bloated "features". Have fun.
Manjaro is for egdy 12years olds, who are too stupid to install arch properly.
Don't be an autist who always switches distros they're all the same just install Ubuntu and do actual work
openSUSE Tumbleweed is a good choice.
It is more stable than arch but you can access pretty much every existing package from the official repos, if not then you can probably find it in the Packman repo.
Plus:
+ You can fallback to yast in case you feel lazy to tweak something through the terminal.
+ Packman repository
+ more stable than arch and manjaro imo
+ friendly but powerful installation UI that allows you to start with a barebones system or a full and bloated desktop
Cons:
- the wiki is awful
- many third party repos are obsolete
- rpm based. Not a problem for me, but many find that annoying
- yast recommended packages default settings are a pain in the ass
Don't be a tragic fucking special snowflake. Just choose Debian or Fedora. I recommend Debian but you can't really go wrong.
Just install OpenBSD and forget about fagged out Linux already. Linux is now part of Windows. The four Platinum Level Linux Foundation members, the companies which decide the direction of Linux, are MS, Google, Intel, and IBM. It's over. It was embraced, extended, and extinguished.
void, just trust me
this. fedora is "i know linux and want to accomplish something." no ricing. no "minimal" no "maximal" just pick what you want with good VM support so you can run it anywhere. Every enterprise i've worked at that had people that used linux, use fedora
