Debian is solid as fuck, perfect for work computers, but I like tinkering with bleeding edge software on the AUR in my free time.
When a huge batch of laptops at my workplace that couldn’t support Windows 11 stopped receiving updates, I switched them to Mint for a drop-in-replacement that wouldn’t scare them too much. Now that they’re used to it Debian is probably the next step.
Debian on my production servers, Arch Linux as my daily driver, Linux Mint on the devices I manage for normies.
Fedora on my servers, fedora as my daily driver, fedora on the devices I manage for normies.
fedora for when I want to hit print and see my networked printer automatically
Debian is my daily driver and for regular people I help. Comes with a service card saying “it will work and you will like it”.
I help for free. If someone does not like it, they can pay to have what they want done. But they don’t get to ask for help again.
