    Peppermint OS , perfect for just working , and customise. But with the rise of asahi Linux my next computer will be a Mac. I also have a Windows AME install I’m not using just in case I need it. For phones , graphene OS . The best there is.

    Windows10, cause I’m a basic bitch. I’ve tried to run Linux a couple times years ago, but games not running properly and me not getting over the learning curve always got in the way.

    Windows 10 primarily due to work requirements. I have a laptop with Xubuntu for personal use.

    Fedora Silverblue and Windows 11 (for games I can’t get to run on Fedora).

    Windows 10. I’m comfortable with it. I’m not sure what I’ll do when the times comes to move to 11 because I don’t like what I see going on over there. My main excuse was always comfort and gaming but the Steam Deck is showing me that gaming isn’t as much of a barrier as it used to be.

    Windows 11, heavily modified with Group Policy Editor. No Microsoft account though.

    I’d love to use Linux… But I’ve tried Mint, Ubuntu, pure Debian and Pop_OS and they all have severe issues with my hardware: from audio stuttering to dropped frames in hardware accelerated video decoding to random boot issues. Plus, some of the software I unfortunately use doesn’t support Linux. And even my game controller didn’t work correctly.

        Most of the times it is not that it isn’t stable, is more that you’re trying to do thinks the Windows way but I get that learning the Linux way can be hard since most of the times it’s not obvious or intuitive.

          Sorry, but no. Putting that on the users is a no-go.

          I agree that Linux is generally stable - when it works (i.e. hardware well supported and the pains of installing and initial setup is gone). But the experience to get to that point is still far from polished, and that don’t usually has anything to do with user expectations on how the OS should work.

          I’ve been using Linux on the desktop on and off since 1998 aproximately - way before it was “cool” - and that has always been the case - it was always “almost there, but not quite”. That’s not a knock on developers either (I’m a developer myself, just not on Linux) - Linux for server stuff is excellent and I’ve always used it for that, but user experience for desktop stuff always had wrinkles, and I understand how many user experience problems can be hard to solve for developers (who more often than not are volunteers) for many reasons, just let’s not put that on the users: things are the way they are for reasons that, at heart, often go beyond users or developers - market, business politics, etc.
