Top recommendation of within one hour of me posting this decides what distro I install. Please not Hannah Montana linux or even worse, Arch.
I leave the decision up to you.
Edit:
The winner was linux mint. I've downloaded the ISO and am installing now. I hope my boss doesn't get pissed.
How 'bout you decide for yourself? Despite what highschool and webster's dictionary suggest, what's popular has no bearing on what's right. In fact, what's popular has occasionally turned out to be Very Wrong.
Uwuntu :3
The kawaiest OS on the market
Fedora Atomic, choose whatever DE you like.
If you want to keep it simple, just go with Gentoo
UWUNTU , linux mint or fedora
Why would your boss get pissed? Does he care about the O.S people are using?
Most corporate environments would not be ok with you randomly deciding to replace the OS, yes.
Depending on MDM and conditional access policies, I'd say probably
Hannah Montana Linux
EndeavorOS
Fedora with KDE.
Arch Linux plssssss
Wubuntu. Because it's a total craze on YouTube right now.
Go to the deep end with NixOS!
I took a look at NixOS. Am I correct in the assumption that I'd need to take a bachelor's degree to actually get how to use that thing and I'm shit outta luck because I'm an embedded programmer?
OP gonna have a fun ride, Nix got me good.
GNU Guix is where it's at
Can't install proprietary apps --> useless as a work machine.
this is not how Guix works - please don't blindly spread misinformation
Install firefox on stock guix please.
add channel nonguix install firefox
since when is "adding a channel" not part of the "stock" system? if that were so nothing would ever be part of debian based stock systems
my point being: you can and probably should try to bring it into your workplace
Distrobox with Arch for proprietary apps?
Makes about as much sense as buying a mac with apple silicon to develop x86 linux apps or windows to develop linux apps.
Can’t beleive that Uwuntu didn’t come up…
People nowadays have no taste
Dammit, too late to suggest Gentoo
Mint is a great option, if your boss is mad then they lack good taste.
