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.

Debian on all of my servers.
I've had Fedora on my Framework laptop for the last year and have really enjoyed the out-of-the-box usability. I think the only troubleshooting I've had to do over that year is some weird issues with CUPS.
I'd love to check out Void one of these days, though, or switch back over to Arch, which was my primary for a few years before Fedora. As an aging dude, distro-hopping isn't quite as exciting as it was 10-15 years ago when I had more time and energy to play around.
