Not anymore.
According to distrowatch, the order is:
1. Linux Mint
2. Debian
3. Ubuntu
Me, I prefer Mint with MATE because with just a few patches the screen is much more readable than any other distro and it is based on Ubuntu, so I have something to fall back on.
Otherwise I would use Arch.
- phaus 13y agoDistrowatch tracks hits per day, not installed user base. I love Linux Mint, but I doubt it has a larger user base than Ubuntu. However, it may eventually. Mint has been consistently winning on Distrowatch since 2011, the year Unity was released. This is just one poll (although a pretty large one), but Reddit does an annual poll. Ubuntu is still killing it. http://constantmayhem.com/ty-stuff/linuxsurvey/2013.html http://constantmayhem.com/ty-stuff/linuxsurvey/2013.html
- LargoLasskhyfv 13y agoYour reading pleasure under Arch can be helped. Someone called Bohoomil ported "Infinality" with every bell and whistle to Arch which he describes here: http://bohoomil.cu.cc/ http://bohoomil.cu.cc/ The Archforumthread is here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=162098&p=1 https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=162098&p=1 and he even prepared a bundle of free fonts which is described here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=170976 https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=170976 where you can switch your preference for free, or Microsoft fonts, should you have them installed also. tl;dr: As of now you can have the very best fontrendering in Arch without compiling some patched stuff from the AUR or elsewhere, just by adding his binary repository in pacman.conf. It's top notch. Seriously.
