Hey fellow Linux enthusiasts! I’m curious to know if any of you use a less popular, obscure or exotic Linux distribution. What motivated you to choose that distribution over the more mainstream ones? I’d love to hear about your experiences and any unique features or benefits that drew you to your chosen distribution.

    It gets a lot of hate round here, because it can be finicky. So in that sense it’s unpopular. I also tried to install it once but quickly got fed up.

      The intention of this post was probably to find new distros that not many people have heard of.

      Manjaro is one of the most popular (well known) distros especially for gaming. Not complaining though; some people think that your device will self destruct if you install Manjaro, so I don’t mind people showing their good experiences with it.
