Windows 11, when I have time to install new SSD I plan to dual boot with Linux Mint

Windows 10 or 11 on all (three) day to day systems. Linux Mint on an old laptop which is hardly ever used, and windows xp on an ancient laptop that's only used as music player, and not connected to any network.

Kubuntu 24.04. When 24.10 is out I'll switch to it (usually a week or two later because I'm lazy and don't feel like rebooting). I've got two desktops and two laptops running that. Then there's the HTPC which also running Kubuntu with font scaling set real high to make it easy to read stuff from the couch (that includes Firefox with lots of GUI scaling changes; uBlock Origin makes it a fantastic anime watching station 👍).

Mine and my daughter's phones have KDE Connect so we can control the HTPC without having to get up to get the wireless mouse/keyboard 😁

The three Raspberry Pis in my house are all running the latest Raspbian image.

My wife's laptop is a Chromebook.

Debian Linux.

Dual booting NixOS and Windows 11 on my desktop, macOS on my laptop.

I’d get rid of Windows if it wasn’t for some games that are annoying on Linux.

I dual boot arch and win11 (for stuff that isn't compatible yet).

Bazzite for personal/gaming, currently Arch for my work install. Will be migrating to Aurora-DX for work one of these upcoming weekends. I still have Windows for the occasional game that doesn't quite work right under Proton and for my VR headset which requires Windows Mixed Reality 🤮. Don't do VR much, so it's quite rare that I boot it up.

I still run Windows 10 on my laptop. I have a few specialty apps that still require it, but I expect to switch to Linux rather than Windows 11. I also run a household server on Ubuntu Linux.

Windows 11. It sucks but I have apps that don't run on Linux, and there simply aren't any alternatives. I dual boot Kubuntu on my laptop and Kubuntu is great. I just wish software compatibility is better

Currently Linux Mint 21, using MATE as my desktop environment.

Ubuntu , I tried switching to arch recently but I could not figure out how to mount my drive that has all movies on it so I switched back for now. Any tips and mounting a NTFS drive .

I used to use endevour os and loved every bit of it. r8 now am on Nixos trying some stuff out and honestly i miss the shere amount of documentation and support that was there for arch but i have heard that nix is very rewarding once i understand the workings soo... Nixos

fedora.

I use 9 systems currently:

• 5 Gentoo
• 2 Arch
• 1 FreeBSD (OpnSense)
• 1 w11

And the w11 is a work laptop that is getting Gentoo whenever I get a minute, leaving w11 on as small a partition as I can get away with for a once a month check in to intune.

Windows 11, I think. I never check but it's defo Windows.

Arch with hyprland, switched from Fedora Sway when I felt like trying something fresh. Installing arch was more difficult than expected since I had a couple weird issues I couldn't really find in the manual, but after a while I got it all figured out.

My desktop PC runs a dual boot of Arch Linux and Windows 11 (for the few things that don't work with Linux cough Destiny 2 cough - damn it Bungie, and VR stuff). My MacBook runs a dual boot of Fedora 40 and whatever is the latest version of macOS that can run on it (its an older Intel model, Apple dropped support for it a couple of years ago - I think its running Big Sur? I hardly ever boot into macOS).

And then my Steam Deck (its effectively just another x86 PC afterall) of course uses SteamOS.

What about you, OP?

DietPi (debian) on all my ARM servers, Fedora-CoreOS on all the x86-64 servers, a pi400 as my desktop running fedora, SteamOS on the steam deck.
