Camden Barnes
James King
Windows 11
It just werks
Sebastian Young
FreeBSD. I only need to program applications for embedded systems and occasionally browse the web.
Logan Rodriguez
>embedded systems
i thought you need proprietary software for that
Thomas Adams
fpwp
based
Carter Price
Fedora. It just works.
Jordan Martinez
Ubuntu. It just werks.
But I've been thinking about building one from scratch with Yocto just for fun
Daniel Richardson
The software I use is available on FreeBSD. Beleive it or not, companies to release software outside of Windows and MacOS.
Thomas Rivera
giwtwm
Debian
it's free and stable
Jeremiah Wood
Red Hat
Noah Moore
No way right is a troon

Void. I like xbps and runit. The repos are well maintained and it's rolling, but not bleeding edge. I have up to date software, but no instability. I was originally using Artix for a short while, but I'm happy I switched to Void instead because it's overall a nicer and more polished distro imo.

That seems pretty neat, I might try that out eventually.

I had training from the Linux Foundation but I was so depressed at the time that I retained zero knowledge. I know how to write simple bitbake scripts but that's about it.
I wanted to know more about Linux but LFS seems too much work, Yocto looks like a good balance on learning Linux internals and not wasting too much time.

Debian is installed but it's having issues so time to distrohop again

nta, but have you ever found a good solution to depression induced brainfog? I got off of antidepressants and brainfog has somewhat gone away, but it can still be really debilitating because I just cannot think or learn anything new some days.

Yes, I found a solution.
I started going to the gym daily and I also take 1 hour to meditate, took the techniques from the MBSR course and also from the "mindfulness in plain English" book. I also quit alcohol and weed, the book atomic habits helped me find techniques to put these habits in place, and also others such as eating slower and sleeping 8 hours a day. Each week do some introspection and see what habit changes I can make to improve my life.
My focus and contentment with life are definitely better and I can cope with the tasks with work without spacing out after less than 5 minutes each time I made an effort to concentrate... which sucked because I'm a developer and my colleagues were getting pissed at me for being so forgetful and missing deadlines when they know I'm a good programmer. I'm also a lot less angry and can cope with stress.
It's been 3 weeks still and I can't say I'm in the clear but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

debian, new to it coming from daily driving lubuntu on a shitbox laptop.

KDE Neon because KDE.
