Not proud to say Windows LTSC, but at least it's better than retail Windows.

Though I have run FreeBSD on certain systems like for building embedded software at the hobby level, but that's not something I use all the time. It's my favorite OS though, elegance in its design.

EndeavourOS on my gaming laptop. I do productivity, Rust programming and gaming, mostly GuildWars2 and various RPGs. Waiting for Baldur Gate 3 !

Linux mint for almost 2 years now. Finally stopped dual booting windows about a month ago after realizing I was running out of things I knew how to do better with microsoft.

I use Manjaro. I know not everyone likes it but it's an easy way to get into Arch based distros and i really like the rolling updates instead of incremental. I still use Ubuntu for servers at the moment.

UBUNTU <3

Gentoo (Linux).

MacOS Ventura on the iMac, Manjaro on the laptop.

NixOS!

Alpine Linux

I am ChromeOS user with Debian linux in terminal.

The funny thing is I am beginning to struggle using the chromebook (Acer 714) for actual work, because of increasing hardware requirements of my everyday software.

I know it is an everlasting road to disappointment, but needed to take it out of my chest.

Linux (Pop OS) . It's amazing how seamless gaming has become with Steam and Proton. Never thought I'd use Linux on my main PC but here we are! There are still issues but hopefully it keeps improving

I use Windows 11 and honestly am pretty happy with it. My laptop runs on fedora. I would Consider Switching to Linux on my Desktop but i do music production and some of my soft and Hardware (NI maschine mk3 and some VSTs) dont run on Linux. As long as that is the case, Switching doesnt make sense for me.

Edit: if anyone has suggestions how to get maschine, vsts from NI komplete and VSTs in General to run on Linux, i would be super happy. As a second DAW i usw bitwig which supports linux but as all my other stuff is windows Based im pretty much tied to Microsoft

Windows 11 because I'm too lazy to try and figure out how to run applicationa/games on a Linux based OS.

MacOS and I'm certainly never going away from that. Just perfect for my use case with nice unix base and a great gui. best of both worlds

NixOS!

Windows 11, but I want to eventually go back to Linux, waiting on better fractional scaling then I think I can head back.

Another Ubuntu user here.

EndeavourOS on my desktop and Pop!_OS on my laptop (it's a System76 laptop).

Nobara Linux

TIL that KDE Plasma is probably the most represented DE on Lemmy 😍

Windows 11

Arch Linux

Windows 10, even despite me being a software developer. It's just more convenient than to bother with Linux, and Android Studio works on Windows just fine

MacOS Ventura because my industry is Mac-based.

Linux

Opensuse Tumbleweed

I use Linix Mint. Close enough to Windows for the basic user, with all of the Linux versatility. Not a fan of the UI on other distros tbh. I've been able to run games on it with minimal extra configuration for the last six or so years. Keep it updated and do a fresh install of the new version every couple years and you're golden.

EndeavourOS, been on Linux for 25 years

I used manjaro for quite some time but the aur packages being out of date caused some major issues so I switched to archlinux. I've been happy with it and have been using it for about a year now.

Wow, am I the only ChromeOS user here? That surprises me

Debian

Ubuntu, it has a great community and works well. I don't need more

Wouldn't this thread be super biased to Linux users since those who use linux as a daily driver tend to talk about it more often than win/mac users?

Windows 10 BUT im using chris titus's powershell script and winaero tweaker and openshell to remove all windows apps and customize the os, plus chocolatey automation and fastcopy scripts to automate my installation process. i havent timed it but on a good day i could reinstall windows and have my system up and running in the hour, including formatting and installing windows 10 to the disk.

Manjaro

Desktop: Windows 10

Laptop: MacOS

Mobile: iOS

And I use an iPad for DND character sheets/notes and generally running sessions for my players.

Arch Linux on my desktop, laptop and server. It just works and I don't have to deal with any issues, I've been using it since 2015 and I found it to be the easiest and most rock solid OS I've ever used. I use Syncthing to sync files across all the computers. Then there's my work laptop, my employer provides Windows 10/11 and Ubuntu, so I chose Ubuntu.

I've been using FreeBSD for close to 15 years now as my main operating system. Very rarely I have to boot into windows.

Popos on my personal laptop and Debian on my workstation at the office.
