Names of some distros. Short descriptions. Some image. No orginal content. Some remarks but no reasoning about why a distro was included in the list. Little surplus value in comparison to the top 10 distros of http://distrowatch.com http://distrowatch.com.
- tenfingers 13y agoThe best distributions are the distributions which have a large developer base, good tools (bug trackers, QA, etc), are desktop agnostic, and have been alive for several years. The list much has been pretty much the same for more than a decade now: openSuse, fedora, debian, arch, gentoo. Everything else is derivative, where the "added value" is often a default theme and a list of default applications.

- sp332 13y agoDebian isn't necessarily better than Linux Mint just because Mint is a "derivative". The reason all these derivatives exist is to focus on a goal the original distro didn't, like a specific desktop.
