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 :) )

I meant it in a philosophical sense.

Let's say the gist of Debian is stability. How can you understand it? If you install now and use it for a week, you'll just see packages that are 2 years out of date, and call it crap without going into the reasoning behind it, or finding your solutions to outdated packages. If you install it after a new release and use it for a week, you'll think it's fedora with apt, and call it a day.

You are correct, maybe 1 week is not that much time, I should try to use it for at least a month.
