    don’t say manjaro could be better.

    • it works… most of the time until it doesn’t
    • it looks nice … until you update something and it breaks
    • it has many features… which you don’t need by default
    • it can be customized easily… if you just want basics
    • it is stable… until you update something

    but i love it and use it daily

    As a void enjoyer, i’m very happy it was included at all because it never seems to be. The fact it ranks so highly is the cherry on top!

      Void’s for sure one of the undersung heroes of the distrosphere.

      It’s my first go-to.

      So very surprising, as it has been since it was still new, how well stocked it is. And so very reliable, to not have stupid package names. It’s a little touch I very much appreciate.

      Big love to voidlinux.

      Respect, that it makes it to top tier.

    I’m ok with almost everything there except Debian. And I’m not even running Debian these days.

    There’s nothing super or complicated about it that would make it Chad. It just works out of the box with non-free software.

    If this was an S-Tier, I’d agree, but Chat tier connotates there’s some reason normal users would not run it.

    Their biggest failure is the failure to market.

    Wait, what?

    Why is Gentoo top and schizo? … And why’s artix, openbsd, and slackware in schizo too? … TemplOS, obviously. But why did the others get misplaced there?

    Makes me all the more want to install CRUX, ~ an idea I toyed with yesterday. Where would CRUX go on this tier list?

    PS, btw:

    Bedrock with Artix, Devuan, Gentoo & Void.

    … My OS has split personality, hears many voices of different package managers.

    EEeeeeeeheheheheheheheh. (* )u( *)

      Alpine and Slack?

      Arch and Artix?

      Void and OpenBSD?

      Oh tell us why…

      It’s not just that you use Gentoo, and your schizophrenia has nothing to do with using Gentoo that you mean, is it? And if so, presumably, your chad’ness likewise, your own, not because of Gentoo, yes?

      Both got the deal with the devil clauses in their end user agreements, right? That’s bad enough it does not even matter who’s better or worse after that. That’s already bad enough to not be fit to use.

      Hell, Mac OS is even a certified UNIX operating system, something that even Linux (or GNU+Linux) can’t say.

      It’s still a non-FOSS OS which is the real reason it sucks, but it’s a lot better than a lot of people seem to think. Whereas Windows just plain sucks on a usability level too, not just the licensing.

        I read a deep dive into the macos “certified UNIX” thing and it’s a scam. I dont remember the details but the certification is obtained only through a set of testing exceptions. The macos used by people is not the macos that is Unix certified.

        As a former macos user (2013-2024ish), macos has become IMO a very user hostile experience. It’s not quite as bad as windows, but macos is not the “user friendly, it (mostly) just works and gets out of your way” os it used to be.

        I’m full time Linux now and when I have to use macos or windows I cannot believe how user hostile they both are.

        Linux is far from perfect, but at least I control my system/os.

          Could be that they certified the Darwin kernel, but not the commercial offering?

          I haven’t really used Mac OS since Mountain Lion, so that makes me sad to hear, but I’m not really surprised.

        The UNIX certification is arbitrary and useless. Windows 11 could get it if they paid for it.
        UNIX is irrelevant now anyway. Linux has taken its place, and every commercial UNIX (except for MacOS I guess) is at end of life or in maintenance mode now. They only still exist for a handful of applications that require decades of backwards compatibility.

        However good it is and however many certificates it has i personally agree with the dogshit classification. It won’t install on any of about 8 computers in my house, including one I bought from apple. Literally unusable to me for the last 10ish years. Windows would probably install on one or two of them I think, so I’ll give it a few hypothetical points for usability for that.

      MacOS has no reason to exist.

      If you are ok running corporate software just use windows with its huge array of software and compatibility with pretty much everything.

      If you want to be cool and different and have problems with software and hardware compatibility run Linux.

      MacOS is the Porsche Panamera of operating systems. People just have it because it matches their 911/iThing

        MacOS does have a reason to exist. It helps people get rid of those pesky thousands of dollars over-bloating their bank account every 5 years when they are told their Mac is obsolete.

          Arch is high skill floor high skill ceiling. Once you get good you can do really cool things with it. GNU/Herd is high skill floor low skill ceiling. If you’re really good and practice really hard, eventually you’ll be able to do things that could have been easier achieved with literally anything else.

        yes in a vm, specificly Debian GNU/hurd, works suprisingly, main issues is lack of hardware support, for usage as a vm guest, I would say it is already better than half of the BSDs

          Similar experience.

          Except, props to the BSDs (especially OpenBSD), for being so much more coherent systems, as perhaps seen best (or at least easiest) in its man pages.

          It’s kinda part of the original point… to make a complete free software operating system…

          Still, was nice that the Linux kernel came along to make things easier than the more advanced approach Hurd was taking.

          Linux Libre + GNU, and got the point of GNU none the less. :)

          Kali is a specialized toolset. Like a tricked out car. Pretty cool if you are a pro driver pushing the machine to its limits. But looks pathetic when driven by a high school guy trying to impress chicks
