What was the first ever distro you installed and used? For me, it was Mint as I seemed like the closest thing to Windows minus all the forced updates and chappy changes.
Currently on Fedora GNOME now but what about you? What made you choose your first distro diving into the world of Linux?
I wanna hear your thoughts!
Gentoo. I figured I could learn much more that way. It was true. The Wiki was excellent. Still is as far as I know.
Arch wiki has entered the chat
Gentoo is on my to-do list to try out, going to set of a whole weekend to just sit down and enjoy the process of installing it. Have never touched it before, but always heard good things about it, as well as the things you learn along the way. Glad to hear you think so too!
it wasn’t my first distro but i did the full bootstrap install so it must have been pre 2005. ran it as my daily driver for years
