Use this post to share what Linux Distro you use (if you’re a Linux user) and discuss what you like or dislike about different ones.
I just recently started using Deepin, and I am really loving it. I dual booted it onto my laptop, which has a core i5 and 6GB of RAM, but somehow runs windows slower than my old laptop which has an i3 and 4GB of RAM. Deepin runs so much faster and it looks amazing. I don’t get why more people don’t use Linux. You can still get all the same apps that run on Windows if you’re willing to put in a bit of extra work to get some of them installed.
@BluntBrain would you recommend I try Linux mint? I was between it and Deepin but ended up going with Deepin because I really like its overall design. I only need the computer I have it on for school purposes, and the apps that come preinstalled on Deepin work fine for that purpose
I’ve got Arch with XFCE in my main computer, but I also run an x86 version of raspbian in my old (2007) desktop pc.
I wouldn’t recommend Linux Mint, it’s not that is bad but I think there are a lot better distros for newcomers that look nicer like Zorin or Xubuntu (that are ubuntu-based so it’s pretty easy to get support and help). Another good “friendly” distro could be Solus (which is not based on ubuntu).
BTW: I wouldn’t recommend Arch to anyone either. I’m using it just because it took me a lot of time and effort to get it to look and feel exactly how I want, so i’m now willing to go through that process again.
