I hope it's the same as last month! You can not become good at something if you keep discarding and restarting. Just use #Slackware and your distro hopping will be something of the past.
For me it is MX for all of the laptops and the one media server. DSL for a extremely old SFF and won't support booting from a USB stick and only from a CD (max 700megs).
CachyOS because my undervolted CPU crashed while installing the CachyOS kernel under straight Arch at the same time as the linux-firmware bug for the latest AMD GPUs gave me a blank screen on reboot and thus chrooting in and looking for a kernel install problem revealed nothing and so I nuked it because I wanted to play Hell Let Loose.
Kubuntu, because it's KDE with apt on it. i wish there was a debian distro with KDE pre-installed installed though, since Snap is very annoying, and me only allocating ~50GB of storage space is getting problematic.
We were using Mint for recycling Win10 and older machines, but computer now hangs during big datafile copies. That's a fatal fault because every such computer rescue compromises data of inexperienced users.
Need to know if Ubuntu is safe in that respect.
Waiting to see what systems official European initiatives will decide are safe and reliable.
A safe and reliable OS would firstly have a file copy function that doesn't hang, that reliably informs user of errors and informs in plain language of what do do in case of trouble.
Similar worry about widely-used software: LibreOffice has well-known fatal design faults.
Still on Mint 22.1 using the Cinnamon desktop. I just installed it on a new desktop PC. Also using Linux Lite 7.4 on a mini-PC, I have not used it as much over the past month as my focus was on retiring my old desktop PC and getting the replacement one going in its place.
