Ask HN: Which linux distribution are you using?
- nick2 14y agoUbuntu
- stakent 14y agoDebian testing with LXDE
- tellarin 14y agoTrusty old Debian with no fancy window manager. But I'm planning on playing around with the new Enlightenment when I have some more free time.
- mike-cardwell 14y agoDebian Testing. Prior to this I used Ubuntu 12.04. I didn't upgrade to Ubuntu 12.10 because I decided I didn't want to give my support to a distro which leaks private data on purpose, by default, without warning, for money.
- S4M 14y agoArch
- motters 14y agoSolusOS 1.2. Previously I was mainly an Ubuntu user, but I didn't agree with the direction in which the distro was going with its dash/Amazon/search exfiltration decision.
- notaddicted 14y agoRHEL, CentOS, and Amazon Linux for servers. Fedora on my workstation for development, I'm more comfortable with the administration since the tools are similar to RHEL. I prefer to use a separate mac laptop for VOIP, video chat and powerpoint/keynote, and whatever else.
- chris_j 14y agoUbuntu 12.10 and Fedora (16 I think).
- Ologn 14y agoUbuntu on my desktop. I can also boot to Debian on my desktop, and have a number of VM images for various distros. Android ICS on my tablet. Bluehost, Dreamhost and EC2 are my servers. Dreamhost uses Debian and Ubuntu. On EC2, I've spun up the Amazon micro AMI and Ubuntu AMIs. Bluehost has a custom CentOS fork.
- Posibyte 14y agoLubuntu 12.10. I have plenty of horsepower for other stuff, but I just don't need it.
- nekopa 14y agoSlackware 14 64bit. Returning to slack after a hiatus of about 6 years
- countersixte 14y agoArch with xmonad as my window manager (http://xmonad.org/ http://xmonad.org/)
- mailshanx 14y agoLinux Mint 14 Cinnamon, with xmonad as window manager
- antidoh 14y agoXubuntu, with awesome for the window manager.
- johncoltrane 14y agoUbuntu 11.04, without anything fancy.
- rauar 14y agoUbuntu, Gentoo, BackTrack
- moccajoghurt 14y agoMint (Cinnamon) and Fedora (LXDE spin)
- meej 14y agoSlackware
- qznc 14y agoUbuntu LTS (so currently 12.04)
- jonjomckay 14y agoArch, with GNOME
- onlyup 14y agoNone, I was using Ubuntu until recently.
- roevhat 14y agoUbuntu LTS.
- japhyr 14y agoUbuntu 11.04, although if I wasn't teaching high school I'd use something different now. I stay with Ubuntu because that's what most of my Linux-using students use.
- mikeevans 14y agoIf you don't mind me asking, why so far behind?
- japhyr 14y agoI just haven't made the time to update my own machine. My students are running 12.04.
- johncoltrane 14y agoI have 11.04 too and I'm going to stay there for a while. It does what I want how I want it to do it. 12.04 had horrible performance issues on my machine when I tested it and the overall UX was poor and too dumbed down. IMO, the whole Unity/Dash thing sucks to no end. It looks like the Ubuntu guys and me have different views on the purpose of a personal computer. When I feel like upgrading my system, I'll probably look elsewhere (Xubuntu, Mint, Debian…) anyway.
- bigbango 14y agoOn my desktop, Debian unstable with XFCE.
- danneu 14y agoCrunchbang (http://crunchbang.org/ http://crunchbang.org/). It's Openbox + Debian-based distro with great defaults.
- e12e 14y agoAndroid on my phone (you did ask for Linux distributions...), Debian GNU/Linux on vps'/servers, and Ubuntu 12.10 on my netbook - as I need to be a little closer to the edge for (almost) proper driver support.
- Sargis 14y agohttp://elementaryos.org/journal/when-its-ready http://elementaryos.org/journal/when-its-ready Still in alpha, unfortunately.
- cabbeer 14y agoBeta 1 is out and it's great!
