EndeavourOS
Mint
Fedora Plasma Spin on my gaming rig. Wife’s laptop is MacOS. Used to run EndeavourOS, and I mostly loved it, but I trust the security and stability of Fedora a bit more after some experience with an Arch base.
OpenSUSE
Windows 10 on the HTPC, dual boot to 7 when I need to rip VHS etc.
Windows 10 on main computer as I need google drive sync, visual basic for excel, stream what you hear and Playit Live for broadcasting.
Seven systems in my house -
3 Windows 10 - One my gaming/workstation rig, my living room HTPC, and a Dell XPS 13 1 Ubuntu - Rig I cobbled together from older parts for player 2. 2 SteamOS - They're Steam Decks after all... 1 Windows 11 - Work computer. I use the XPS if I can avoid it.
MX Linux, since ~8 years
Linux or ChromeOS most often. I keep one older windows 10 laptop around for specific software that won't run on anything else. I don't have to use it very often these days but when I do need it it's always for something important that can't run on any other OS.
I moved my parents to ChromeOS a couple of years ago, I use Linux on my work laptop and on my personal laptop as well.
Ubuntu 2204 with normal Gnome on a Thinkpad T14, used for both work and personal stuff. Been eyeing Fedora Silverblue for a while…
For gaming I use GeforceNow on that same laptop.
openSUSE Tumbleweed
Windows 10 for now. When they EoL it I'll switch to a Linux distro. Not sure what yet. I really like PopOS on my Surface because the gnome interface works well, but I think I'll go with something built with KDE for my desktop
Right now I'm using Windows 11 but I will most certainly migrate to Fedora in the future.
Edit: I already use Fedora Server on my homeserver.
OpenSUSE Tumbleweed!
Pop_OS for the main PC, Ubuntu for the laptop and Debian for all the servers (lots of pis). There are 2 PCs left that run windows 10, one is the media rig and the other was an AMD APU that lived in a briefcase as part of a "totally not laptop" thing I built. Its a slow process to fully migrate away from windows, but so far im managing.
My daily rn is a laptop running Win 10.
I have the parts for a new rig, I'm thinking of running Mint on that.
Debian Stable. I have a W10 partition but I don't boot into it very often. We're talking about a few times per quarter.
Fedora and Fedora Server for my server.
I used to dual boot windows but after the 4th time it nuked my boot partition, I deleted it and did a fresh install. I really only used it to play one non linux game which was Halo Infinite, which was not really that fun tbh.
Win10 on my gaming rig for compatibility and because I'm comfortable with the usage of Windows. Arch Linux with docker containers on the ol' server
Win 10. But I have Hyper-V enabled so I guess it is technically Hyper-V as the os and windows as the guest os.
Windows 11 on my Surface Pro, Windows 10 on my main computer and bedroom computer (the smartest tv is a dumb tv connected to a cheap minipc), and Linux Mint on my server and old laptop.
