Fedora, Mint, Arch, Ubuntu, Debian and OpenSUSE go head-to-head – we’ve dropped the six most popular Linux distributions of the day into a cage fight for your affections. Read on to discover which distro comes up top for installation ease, customisation, performance, security and more. Which flavour of Linux gets the gold medal? You might very well be surprised, so read on for all the juicy details…
In the beginning, Linus created the kernel. The kernel worked (sort of) and was good. Then, in an ever-spiralling Babelesque explosion of code, the world got umpty-ump different Linux distributions, some of which seem to differ from each other only in the colour of their desktop screens.
Complete Story
You know something, I really like Fedora. A lot. That said though I’ve got to disagree with you.
Ubuntu, in my humble:-) opinion is really better. About the time that SUSE tumbled off the Linux heap, I got into looking around for something new. Fedora I liked, but at that time I was experiencing hardware issues with it. And then along came Ubuntu. I’m no expert here, just opinionated. As an example, I had a very ‘geeky’ friend who actually installed my first Linux OS. SUSE 8.6 for me. So in that sense I found that Ubuntu was for me.It was great as I could actually
install it myself. Can you tell I’m no Slackware fan.?
Debian really is the best!
Ubuntu is the best in my experience. No problem for the last one year, very stable, regular, integration with all hardwares. I suggest Ubuntu for all new users.
