Hello,

I try out new distro every week since I have a lot of free time and want to learn more about Linux. I was thinking that it would be interesting to make a Lemmy post every week talking about my experience with the distro and what I did with it. right now I have alpine linux installed and thinking about using it till next sunday.

feel free to suggest next distro that I should try out. (I have tried out a lot of distros but never wrote anything about the experience but now on I will be making post about it here on Lemmy :) )

Enough to find and overcome issues with how you use it.

If you quit a distro before you run into an issue then that's not very helpful when it comes time to make a choice

If you aren't able to overcome and fix an issue that you run into while using the computer the way you would normally, then your probably not learning much about Linux.

My recommendation is to go for at least a minor kernel upgrade.

If all you want to do is test out distros before you commit to an install, then check out https://distrosea.com/
