Distrochooser

distrochooser.de

The Distrochooser helps you to find the suitable Linux distribution based on your needs!

Quite a few posts about selecting a distro to use. Maybe it’s time to make that link a little more prominent?

In addition, to what everyone has already said, Distrochooser is just bad. It will often pull the stupid card, like this one:

Linux@lemmy.ml

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Rules

Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
