As someone who gradually went from arch to Manjaro to Ubuntu because I kept breaking my installs or not having time, this resonates lol.

Manjaro likes to break on its own during updates in my experience
The Arch Dilemma. If you never update the system, it will never break. To update without breaking you have to carefully check every package update, but it's time consuming. So you either spend time productively on an outdated but working and stable system or you spend time carefully keeping up a bleeding edge updated system.

Unraid, pfsense, and ubuntu server running pterodactyl panel / wings
ManjaDebEndevNix is my favorite
I once was so enthusiastic about Fedora...
I settled on Fedora after distro hopping then the whole RHEL stuff happened and I'm so annoyed haha
I'll probably stick with it for the time being, but I should probably have an exit strategy

XeroLinux. It's a nice, convenient Arch-based one with a good installer and helper app. Makes getting into Arch feel a lot more newbie-friendly. I disable the latte docker and crazier desktop effects though, I like mine more plain and fast.

You're all beta testers for Rocky Linux.
I use Ubuntu ... but I frequent the Arch forums.
Hannah Montana Linux of course. Disney uses on their disney plus servers

My first thought with this meme was chronic distrohopping. Do I tell them what I'm using this week? Or the last distro I used for any amount of time? Do I tell them the obscure distro name or the name of the major distro it's forked off of? If I'm dual booting do I tell them the experimental OS I'm daily driving or the reliable fallback I have on my other partition?
Grateful we have passed the point at which this meme is relevant. Microsoft would never have imagined this 25 years ago.
I like arch, but also use debian on computers I don't use often. Then I mess with the bsds on a few spare thinkpads.

Ubuntu. lol
Not for real, just want to stir the pot.

Almalinux. I used to use centos on servers and fedora workstation on my desktops but have switched over to Almalinux for both. Will be interesting to see what shakes out with the whole Redhat source repo change.
Ubuntu was unstable for me on my desktop every time I tried. I always disliked Ubuntu on servers.
When people hear I'm using Linux they're always like "Must be some Ubuntu" (I actually use Endeavour)
