This is my linux. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
-
My linux is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.
-
My linux, without me, is useless. Without my linux, I am useless. I must boot my linux true. I must boot faster than windows who is trying to be buggy. I must boot him before it boots. I will …

My linux and myself know that what counts in this world is not the times we boot, the noise of our bootsounds, nor the smoke we make. We know that it is the linux computer that count. We will install….
-
My linux is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its repos and its flatpaks. I will ever guard it against the ravages of non updating as I will ever guard my legs, my arms, my eyes and my heart against damage. I will keep my linux clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will ….
-
Before God(s)(?), I swear this creed. My linux and myself are the defenders of my convictions. We are the masters of our computers. We are the saviors of my digital life.

So be it, until linux is the world’s most used OS and there is no walled gardens, but only peace!!

any distro without systemd
Using Linux is not a dick measuring contest (and man I hate these threads asking “why is your distro the best?” - it feels like trolling and sowing division and grief to me. A bit like asking a mother “What is your favorite child?”.)
My distro is the best because I customized it to my needs. Also because I used it for so long that I know how to do almost anything on it.

You mean my distros?
Different distros are the best for different purposes.
My Fedora is the best for my laptop because it just works and all the hardware is supported.
My Arch is the best because it’s a super fine tuned setup that prevents distractions and doesn’t waste memory or CPU doing things I don’t care about.
My mint is the best because it’s simple, stable, beautiful out of the box.
My debian is the best because servers are no nonsense.
My puppy Linux was the best when I was a developer for the distro because it was the smallest lightest and fastest distro I’ve ever used.
Etc.
It’s very small on my disk. It doesn’t have systemd. It uses musl, which is considerably easier to configure than GLibc. It has a fast and easy to use package manager. It has both stable and rolling releases for packages. Easy to write your own packages and build them from source. Easy to contribute to upstream.
Can’t say it’s the best, but I love Alpine. It’s light, fast, versatile and easy to use, runs on anything, and despite it being used mostly in containers and VMs, it makes for a great desktop distro aswell. :)
its tasyt 👍
I use Arch, btw, but I don’t consider it the best (yes I do.) I could easily transition to Fedora, for example (I would never do that,) and be completely happy (I would rather continually hit my head with the metal stapler gun on my desk.)
Does what I want and gets out of my way.
As it should.
Me linux distro is not the best. “The best” varies from person to person and also in accord to different positions in time.
Yup. To me, IRIX was the best, until I found GNU+Linux in late 2003 and becoming a windows refugee, not to IRIX, but to, not just GNU+Linux, but all freedom respecting operating systems and their distributions, and the potential of what they could become, as I and many others attempt to learn them, and help contribute to them. Many more itches to scratch yet. The best is yet to come, for each and all. :) Or so the philosophy inspires and aspires.
[PS… Oh I so would love a FOSS IRIX… a free software [“open source”] multi-arch IRIX revival though… beyond just NekoWare and whatever else is scattered around.]
[PPS, oh, and varies computer to computer too… I don’t use the same distro everywhere. Sometimes even several distros on the same computer. Quite right to point out the folly of the notion of there being a one-true-way “best”.]
Bazzite just works, it runs every game I have with zero fuss, it’s easy to run Windows programs / emulators / local LLMs, AND it’s basically unbreakable.
