For me it’s PeppermintOS.

I started my Linux adventure a few years ago, and haven’t owned a Windows PC since.

I currently use Arch on my main rig, and I wanted to install Linux on two old laptops that I found laying around in my house

I then remembered the first distro I ever used, which is PeppermintOS, and I was amazed at the latest updates they released.

They even have a mini ISO now to do a net-install with no bloat, with a Debian or Devuan base.

Sadly, I believe the founder passed away a few years ago, which is why I was really happy to see the continuation of this amazing project.

    I tried it once, and it was hella impressive, but I didn’t stick with it, I don’t know why. It just seems a little too much for me.

      It kinda fucks up your FS (not in a data-loss way, but it gets really messy): it was showing 3.2TB… on a 509gb partition of a 1tb ssd. Heck, I only have 3TB in my whole PC

        Different tools handle that differently. Takes a little extra eye adjustment to tease out the information from df -h, for example.
