It's nice to see I'm alone. BYC might use Linux on its servers as well.
I've been giving Rocky Linux a go for my next server. Currently I'm using a old version of Debian on my servers. I used to use Linux Mint on my laptop, but I got bored of it. OpenMandriva had too many dependency issues, so I went to the Fedora KDE spin.
Waiting for hard drives is hard. My laptop had a half dead drive in it last year. I waited for a long time to use it because I didn't want to brick the drive.

Career linux admin/engineer. 20+ years. I know, trust me. When I worked at Red Hat, people used to ask me what old ladies needed with computers

Old ladies need a laptop with Linux capable of loading BYC, and, of course, a chicken.
I know someone who has no idea how to use a terminal but they use Linux Mint every day with no issues.
What's your preferred desktop environment? Mine is KDE.

Hey, I've got a chicken called Abigale, too. And I also use linux pretty much 90% of the time. I only have one machine that still has windows on it, but it's already dual booted and it's only a matter of time before I kick it off the ssd completely.

I have arch on my school laptop, ubuntu dual booted at home, and debian on my 32 bit laptop that I really only keep going because it pleases me to maintain older hardware.

Puppy Linux Bionic on one.
Ubuntu Mate and Mint on another
Ubuntu Studio on my music server.
