Distros to Try Next Year (or This Weekend)
THE sister site notes that now is a great time to try a new distro (or introduce people to GNU/Linux, especially those who enjoy many consecutive days off work).
Here's a list of distros we deem interesting and worth exploring:
- LMDE (tried it last year)
- Devuan (same)
- Peppermint based on Devuan
- MX Linux
- Gentoo (now comes in binary form)
- EasyOS
- PCLinuxOS
- Slackware
- Alpine
- Nitrux
- Void
This list is based not just on gut feeling but also things I've been reading over the years. Debian derivatives are in this list. Debian has its issues, but it remains crucial for hundreds of distros. █
