I don’t have a server but If I had one I would prob pick nixos or some arch distro

pastermil , in What distro do you use for your servers?

Debian!

I’ve heard good things about Alma Linux.

Also, Ubuntu’s not that bad. You’d see this a lot in corporate settings.

Always, always, always: Debian. It’s not even a debate. Ubuntu is a mess for using as a server with their snaps bullshit. Leave that trash on the desktop, it’s a mess on a server.

beeng ,

Snaps are meant for server applications but yeah

bastion , in Is FreeSync over HDMI not supported in linux even for FreeSync compatible monitors?

I have freesync on my laptop with the inbuilt screen.

Sentau OP ,

Me too!

I am guessing that is because the internal displays in laptops are connected using an embedded DisplayPort(eDP) and not HDMI

phoenixz , in What distro do you use for your servers?

Debian and Ubuntu server which, barring some differences in versions, are basically the same thing

They’re both awesome

I always use Rocky Linux or Alma Linux, since I have extensive experience with enterprise Linux and RPM packages. I have Fedora on my main desktop computer. Both Rocky Linux and Alma Linux are rock-solid and are ideal for any kind of workload.

Also, Debian is a good choice if you know how to manage DEB packages and you feel comfortable with APT.

Fedora is a good choice if you want fresh packages and are willing to upgrade your server every 6 months (following the Fedora release cycle).

Rocky Linux and Alma Linux follow a similar slow release cycle of RHEL, wherein you can install your server and not have to worry for years (as long as the packages are updated with dnf update) Debian is also a slow release distribution, which makes it good for servers.

30p87 , in What distro do you use for your servers?

Arch. With testing repos. And somehow, it also just works.

Yunohost.

ray1992xd , in What distro do you use for your servers?

Mint on the Desktop, FreeBSD on the server. Amazingly stable.

olafurp , in Question: What is Linux misinformation?

That Linux is a single OS where OS means a distro. They end up thinking that there are 3 systems in the world, Windows, Mac and Linux.

They’re pretty close, there are three types of kernels used my majority of modern computers but they since they aren’t really into different OS software they equate it with “there only 3 types of OS GUIs”.

Nomecks , in What distro do you use for your servers?

Red Hat, because it’s free for developers and used by a lot of enterprises.

limelight79 , in Linux on non-PCs/Laptops

I came across a bowling arcade game that ran Linux. Still kind of wishing I’d bought it.

Pretty sure it’s this one.

openSUSE Leap - YaST is the greatest thing since sliced bread, and works great on command line over SSH. Yes, sometimes installing some software is difficult, but generally most stuff you would want is there and a lot of stuff runs on Docker anyway now. Very stable too, have had nearly zero issues.
