I run Ubuntu LTS on everything.
I like CentOS
Why slackware? Just curious.

90s nostalgia?
IMO CentOS is great for VPS & dedi's.
I cut my teeth on Slackware 2.1. In a fit of nostalgia, I've reset all of my screensavers to xlock(more).
They want to relive the horror of trying to get a winmodem working on Slackware during the 90's with no internet access. I still have nightmares.
I can't imagine running a headless Linux installation without internet reference.
Windows bro so i can use a GUI and mash my mouse around the screen
lol you know Linux has GUI's and is far more secure and stable.
Is that so? Really?
And you, do you know that "linux server" can mean a fucking lot, namely anything between "small tight alpine with just the necessary" and "fucking bloated lots of crap plus the kitchen sink abomination"?
CentOS 6.9
FreeBSD 11.1
Slackware is an acquired taste, not easy to acquire, but once you acquire it ...
xscreensaver, baby! xlock is a bit passé, even for Slackware users, but it's still there!
Ubuntu
Ubuntu LTS for multi-purpose servers/Desktop.
Debian Stable for single-purpose server (fileserver, nginx/haproxy, SFTP storage)
CentOS 7 only.
Debian.
...and Ubuntu for Docker
Mostly CentOS 7 and Ubuntu
Debian and Centos 7
Debian & old Debian for my @cociu box
CentOS for production stuff, Debian for personal stuff, and Ubuntu as a fallback for both situations.
Debian and CentOS.
Debian
Centos debian fedora and Freebsd on the serious stuff.
Started on slackware in the late 90s. Moved across to Debian and Ubuntu. A smattering of FreeBSD 11.
CentOS 6 > CentOS 7 > Fedora > Ubuntu/Debian > literally any other OS > Windows > Slackware (because AuroraZ said it)
I am so sorry for your loss. Still Slackware.
