You should have tried ubuntu mate for nostalgia. That shit made me remember Debian 6 and Ubuntu 10.04.
You should give a try before jump next distro.

I just had to go back to windows for my desktop. I just got tired of dealing with driver issues on linux and other compatibility problems. I still prefer it tho.

better version. you are brainlet

all ubuntu flavours are the same

i tried mate as well, not interested

I personally love Manjaro and even with the bloat, you described it still runs smooth as silk on the POS laptop I bought just to play around with Linux. 10/10

why are you gay

What's wrong with them?

Care to explain why you like to distrohop so much? What difference is there other than pkg manager and the pkgs preinstalled

>smooth
it's outdated... definitely not smooth [hated it]
>bloat
its a problem having such software bloated distro, manjaro team should just let us to select what software we want, not bloating it with useless shit

I distrohop because something tells me that
n o t t h i s d i s t r o
there was always at least one, like even small problem that pissed me off
for example

Manjaro :
>bloat

OpenSUSE :
>installing i3 too hard, ragequit

Debian netinst

Idk, I was born this way I guess.

I still run linux on my laptop and file server tho.

Ubuntu if you want to get stuff done
*buntu if you can't learn to use modern DE, and need to stick to your old ways
Arch if you want to have 100% custom setup, or spend spare time learning
Gentoo if you want to work on extremely specific hardware, like washing machine, car, or light bulb
Manjaro if you are brainlet too stupid to learn Arch
Elementary/Mint if you want abandoned and slightly broken version of Ubuntu
Fedora if you work at/with RedHat

If i3 was too hard for you on OpenSUSE, then what in the name of holy fuck were you doing on Arch and especially Gentoo?

Just write an installer for Arch and use that. Pacman and aur is superior

Meh, tell me something I don't know.

>all flavors are same
You can say that for every Linux distro

>Mentions that he don't like arch
>Just install arch

CRUX will cure the bejeezus out of that

>Install VM ware, virtualbox or any other shit virtualization that exists.
>create a VM to any fucking distro you want to test
>try all that shit you want until you find some that you really liked
>install that as your default distro

GNOME BOXES

just double click an .iso file and it instantly boots it in new window

Solus OS

this is pretty good distrochooser.de/en

Was in the same predicament as OP because of my monitor's compatibility issues.

This one worked best, but there was a sparse amount of specific software.

Anyone actually use this? I've heard it in name only honestly. What's the appeal?

Personally OP, realize that package #'s and bloat is all useless. System to system use packages specifically, and if you have a problem with a higher number, then take a step back and realize that lol.

Just use whatever works best for your hardware and you. Manjaro is literally arch with tweaks, OpenSUSE is buggy and zypper sucks. idk your problem with the debian family of stuff, but yeah. I've used everything you've mentioned and just look back at them and think of this: why didn't you like them? Was it a small issue that you could have fixed? was it a fundamental problem with the distro?

If you don't like these baseline systems for whatever reasons behind bloat or whatever, maybe you should just try and stick wtih a system that works for you for awhile, then realize what you actually need and switch from there. Relogging into stuff is such a pain in the ass that I've kinda given up on hopping and now i've stuck to Manjaro. Distro's are a glorified tweaked DE behind a package manager. Don't let differences make you switch everywhere.

Personally, I stuck with Solus for a really long time, and the only reason I hopped was because of compatibility with my VPN software, that and Solus was always a week to a few months behind in terms of support. Like hell, they're still on GNOME 3.28. Yeah, I get the GNOME meme but w/e, a DE is a DE honestly.

>answer the test
>Result: Antergos

WAT? WHY?

The software situation these days is fine, 99.9% of what you'd want to use is in the repos, if it isn't get it as a flatpak or appimage

ah, so you just dont know linux yet.
those are usually the people that hop, you'll grow tired of it eventually and start actually learning

i stopped hopping on Gentoo. portage too good.

There is no perfect distro that will suit everyone. The problem is that you have nothing to do and instead of doing something productive you reinstall distros and (probably) rice them.

arch is based user, but you should probably use anarchy linux instead, its more minimal
anarchylinux.org/download/

I've installed manjaro budgie, removed the software that I did not want and installed yay (yaourt replacement) works like a charm and it's quick.

I- really hate flatpak honestly. That and snaps are terrible. They don't respect your mouse, and half the time they're slow as fuck.

Maybe that's just me though? It's always been nothing but negative experiences for me.

Pretty much just you, I've had nothing but good experiences with flakpak

>Solus
>Not using Budgie

Why even using Solus then?

i3 is easy to set up on both gentoo and arch
but opensuse is gay so no thanx

I did for awhile too. Never really had any complaints behind Budgie, other than it felt like a lesser gnome.

Just preference honestly.

CentOS with docker to run newer software

what's the best /baremetal/ distro to do this?
centos or debian? I want to have a dead stable machine with new software trough containers/virtualization

you need to step back and think to yourself what your use case is. If you hopped from a distro without a reason to hop you're doomed. If Manjaro, or OpenSUSE worked without any issues GO BACK.

slackware immediately cured it for me

The only thing that made me stop hopping was a fresh Debian netinst install with i3wm, since ricing and setting up i3 takes quite sometime i'm just lazy to setting it up all over again in a different distro.

Yea i can write install scripts and all but i'm fine atm.

You should try Debian with XFCE. It's lightweight, stable, fast, and extremely customizable. At git.xfce.org/archive/xfce4-taskbar-plugin, you can find a plugin that behaves like the Windows 7 taskbar, which I've been trying to get packaged for Debian/Ubuntu. I've been using it for months and haven't stopped since. Currently, I have my setup looking similar to Ubuntu's Unity. (Don't judge.)

I'll try Debian with i3/openbox at most
i don't use DEs

Oh, in that way. Yeah, I concur with that.

Honestly just use Debian.
It's popular and you can fix any issue you might have because of it.

what was your problem with arch

it just breaks way too often, i don't have time for that

Just use Debian

Attached: 1551485814683.jpg (933x1244, 188K)

Archlabs is the comfiest while easy to install and ready to use afterwards. Undoubtedly the best arch-based distro.

so you just dont know linux, install *buntu

it kinds of put me off that I see so many old security bugs

>2018
>37 matches
we are 5 months into 2019 lmao, this feels like slackware. Is the page outdated or something? I don't get it, I checked a couple and they are still vulnerable, though I don't use any

>hurr durr arch is the only linux distro where if it breaks it's the user problem
you are fucking nigger retard
go back to unix porn, most problems aren't upstream it's fucking arch, since upstream is mostly bugfixes unless you are tracking development branches

Which Linux distro would be the most suitable for my laptop that with a 64 bits operating system, Which uses a Hard Disk HDD Toshiba MQ01ABF050 has only 2.00 GB of RAM has only 1.00 GHz, has an x64 processor, and also has AMD E1-2100 APU with Radeon (TM) HD Graphics?

I look for a distro of Linux that is light, that uses very little RAM, that needs few GHz, and that easy to use for a user that is totally new and beginner in Linux

Bodhi Linux
Xubuntu
Gentoo [recommended]

And which of those 3 Distros, is the most user friendly for new and inexperienced users in Linux?

You're just a pussy who gives up because something is too hard. Go back to your room distrohopping, you sissy

Gentoo

>intalling i3 too hard
>in any distro
>ever
fucking retard, even in linux from scratch would just take building it from source

have sex

u m, fuck off opensuse shill

your nigger os isn't special and only above-average thing in opensuse is yast and i struggle to even include that one

The problem is that I do not have any experience with Linux.

I am looking for a Distro that is friendly to users who have no prior experience with Linux

Basically, I'm looking for an ideal Linux for beginners and first-timers in Linux.

Arch Linux or windows 98

Install Clear Linux

Attached: tut-clear-linux.png (840x370, 33K)

elementary os is pretty fun

>Orthopedic solutions for problems that shouldn't be there.

Install windows 10

Fpbp

Mint

fpbp, based, redpilled, etc. Windows is for people with jobs who can't be playing around with their OS all day.

OP [faggot]

Why would Mint Linux be the best distro for my poor laptop?

And what requirements does Mint need?

how about I come over and cook you dinner then tuck you in too

blog.linuxmint.com/?p=3669

System requirements:
1GB RAM (2GB recommended for a comfortable usage).
15GB of disk space (20GB recommended).
1024×768 resolution (on lower resolutions, press ALT to drag windows with the mouse if they don’t fit in the screen).

OK thanks.

and finally, which version of Mint Linux do you recommend?

Linux Mint bro

void or mx

What this guy said. It's not like one has a line of super special code. It's the same shit with different layouts.


Every distro hopper ends with a netinstall built up with the programs you need. That's how all the archfags got here.

For a shit notebook, get the Mate one. For a ok one, Cinnamon.

Opensuse is shit doesn't change the fact that you are a subhuman nigger who can't install a simple C program without any dependencies

why do you keep jumping?

theres hardly any difference between all those unless you're doing very technically stuff. If you were you wouldn't have that question

Install Gentoo

libreboot+parabola and purity spiral until you live alone in a cabin in the woods perfecting your setup for the next 20 years

well then good user, just try fedora. Arch derivs are kinda.. bad. I hopped for a while until I landed on void and gentoo OpenRC. I now live in comfort

Attached: voidbest.png (348x301, 27K)

Clear Linux has the best performance
and most recent stable packages out of any distro. There is little reason to use anything else.

The logical thing would be to keep your current distro, not ask for new ones and continue the cycle.

Probably nothing new can "cure" you. Go back to the distro that made you most productive.

If it was Arch or Gentoo consider Void.
If you liked Ubuntu or another GNOME distro then I'd strongly consider Fedora.

>i3
You're distro hopping but you're using a WM like i3?
Ofc you thought Manjaro was just bloat, its i3 edition is preconfigured.

You're really a retard if you think a distro is going to change how your i3 setup behaves.

all manjaro editions are bloated with software you nigger

Stop shilling your shit outdated distro

Clonezilla. If you like a particular OS, you can save the disk image using Clonezilla, and move on to install the next distro over it. Repeat. After you have amassed a sizeable collection of disk images, say 10 different distros, then you can leisurely rotate between them daily/weekly/whatever. Because you can't really know if you like an OS in a one-week trial, not enough time to grow into its idiosyncracies.

1-2 GB RAM?
Bloat shit user, I stick to my 256mb RAM arch Linux setup

I hopped around for a while before settling with what I originally tried (Mint). Since going back to it, I've had no interest in moving again. Easy install/upgrades and most problems have multiple solutions. Good enough for me, with the god-tier W7 feel combined with the power of Terminal.

Arch, unnironically. Shit just works for me.

I picked KDE neon since its an Ubuntu based distro and if I ever run into problems there's a 99% chance that this question was already asked on SO. Also most projects usually are tested on the newest Ubuntu LTS which means less problems here which is nice.
