    I enjoy the memes, but I’m embarrassed to admit I actually don’t know what the difference between linux distros are.

      I think you’re courageous to admit it in spite of feeling embarrassed, and I admire that.

      If we all ask and share without ego, the world gets just a little bit better. :)

      The software philosophy of the maintainers and their choice of packages and design.

      A simple but important difference: the package-manager: apt, dnf or pacman (there is more but let’s bring it down to these three).

      Another one is security: apparmor or selinux

      The last one are preferred and preinstalled Desktop-Environments.

      And if you want to keep it simple, just be based on another distro and let them do the hard work.

      Everyone can start their own distro. Manage some packages together, choose for example: Based on Arch, pacman, selinux and hyprland-wm and name it hypearch. Et voila!

    Debian user here. Checks out.

    Though I use Windows (and Debian WSL) as desktop daily. The fact that I mostly drink instant coffee is possibly related.

    I have the second one, it takes about 2 minutes to make a cup of espresso, most of the time unattended, I’ve had it for 15 years, and yeah, it took some time to learn how to use at first.

    I also use Debian, not Gentoo…

    No joke, I’ve had two Keurig machines break on me in the past year. Those machines are trash, built to break. After the second one, I just bought a $10 coffee pot, and it’s working great. It’s probably going to last me ten years. There’s barely any parts to break.

    I use espresso, pour over, and v60 carafe from this image. But I now pretty much only use Deb and Fedora, and the occasional OpenSuse. Arch was fun, but too constantly “hands on” for use as a daily. Ubuntu used to be good (past tense). I got annoyed with constant manual compiling with Gentoo, but am considering going back to it anyway.
