So of the three happiest distros, two aren’t very concerned with mainstream appeal and will carry on contentedly doing their thing while ignoring rankings like this. Sounds about right.

zod000 ,

These results seem freaking bizarre and I’m highly skeptical. You’re telling me that Slackware users, freaking SLACKWARE, are the happiest? And Firefox is the least happy? I am so much happier using Firefox than have been with Chrome for at least a decade.

superkret OP ,

The question wasn’t how happy users are with their distro, but in general. My theory is, people who have a lot of great things going on in their life (wife, kids, social life) don’t bother installing Arch.

Wow, no need to make this personal. /s

zod000 ,

I wonder if people using steam decks know they are running Arch.

Haha silly Manjaro users, only 6.83 happy while I am 6.93 happy as a Debian user. My Linux knowledge is clearly superior to most, not counting those excessively happy freaks running Slackware.

@superkret But where is nixos?

Under 6 😜

@filister Above 7.5 and in right side of graph (not in picture) 😅😂

As a Fedora user I can confirm that this seems about right.

It looks like it’s about doing real work instead of tweaking your distro 🫠

Even though most people don’t agree with the stats, I think it makes sense because Arch users are never satisfied with their setup. It could cause many of them to choose an average number.

Engywuck ,

That’s why I use Arch but avoid Firefox. Balance is the key.

What would you recommend instead of Firefox?

Engywuck ,

I’m done recommending stuff, because my use case is not necessarily your use case. I can only tell you that Brave is the sweet spot for me, at the moment.

@FatLegTed@piefed.social avatar

I get what you mean, we all have different requirements, didn't expect Brave, though. It's getting a lot of flak lately.

Thanks anyway; -)

apotheotic ,

I guess the nixos users were all too busy asking everyone if they’ve heard of nixos to answer the survey?

BTW have you heard of nixos?

TheBigBrother ,

Happily using Pop! OS, cheers!!

superkret OP ,

I feel like this post would have been downvoted a lot less if I had altered the title to “Slackware users are the happiest!😊”
