This is kind of the anti-distro hopping thread. How long have you stayed on a single Linux distribution for your main PC? What about servers?

I’ve been on Debian on and off since 2021, but finally committed to the platform since April of this year.

Before that I was on OpenBSD from 2011 - 2021 for my desktop.

Prior to that, FreeBSD for many years, followed by a few years of distro-hopping various Linux distros (Slackware, Arch, Fedora, simplyMEPIS, and ZenWalk from memory).

How long have you been on your distribution? Do we have anybody here who has been on their current distro for more than a decade?

    I’ve been using linux for a long time. Typically stuck with Ubuntu and upgrading when the next LTS was released. I did try other flavors like ubuntu budgie as well. Also liked ZorinOS for a year or two.

    Then things like elementary were fun to use, but for a daily driver, I like a little more main stream OS and desktop experience.

    Currently using Fedora cinnamon for the last year. I have some VMs that probably stay the longest, but for my personal laptop, I usually spend a year or two on it.
