centos because it is very stable
Debian, thx.
RHEL/CentOS has always suffered from a very bad case of "let's change things just because we can".
Ubuntu, thx.
Windows on servers is SCAM_DONT_INSTALL. No clue about MacOS, does it have any reason to exist?
None - serverless with google firebase
Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS are all the same - its all about who maintains the packages!
Debian ripoff.
It has a really nice GUI. Actually, being old enough to remember the hideous Unix GUIs of the 80s and 90s, it's nice to finally have a Unix with a nice GUI.
BTW, @plumberg, why isn't OpenBSD on your list?
I'm a CentOS guy as I know the ins and outs very well and workaround most issues I come across in a timely fashion. But I always thought LET was more Ubuntu/Debian centric, so surprised by the poll results so far
Because some software is exclusive on centos.
Debian is my go to. Then CentOS, mostly when it's required by the software. I used to primarily use CentOS exclusively but have switched to Debian in recent years.
so true ^_^
DDE is a nice DE tho. (Not for a server of course) And you don't have to use deepin anymore to get it either.
CentOS and Alpine for small servers
WindowsXP self compiled, 10/10.
Ubuntu or CentOS i would recommend as a good OS
I’d prefer Ubuntu and Windows for home use and Debian for servers.
now that windows is open source, maybe IOCP will be more popular than epoll/kqueue
Windows - 0% 😆
Debian and Ubuntu, CentOS is too yummy for me.
You're so punny.
Serverless doesn't mean it's not hosted on a server.
Centos all the way.
Ubuntu all the way. 99% of servers I have are running on this, the rest are routers (VyOS, RouterOS etc.)
Ubuntu vs Debian, Ubuntu is commercial and cut version of Debian, so Debian all the way.
CentOS is very popular as its based on RedHat.
I got a mix of ubuntu and opensuse leap
I tried centos and felt it was not for me. Debian is
Ubuntu LTS versions, CentOS, Red Hat, and Cumulus Linux (for network).
Quite some good stuff missing, e.g. slack, alpine, OpenBSD, and of course TempleOS.
+1 Centos
As God intended
Like what? I always thought Debian and especially Ubuntu were the changing one's since Centos is released far less often and targets enterprises. And pretty much everything they change is a result of something broken with many issues. They (Red Hat) provides support at scale, they know what are the broken bits that constantly cause pain.
Full disclosure, I welcomed systemd and firewalld as it allowed me to never have to fuck with manually editing start scripts and iptables.
But Wi-Fi on debian is a dumpster fire.
