Now that the dust has settled, what's the best distro?
>>
>>108814750
MX Linux
>>
>>108814750
Rolling-release, stable af, binary-based. Pick two, then install Debian, Arch, or Gentoo.
>>
Arch
it's literally in the wiki
>>
>>108814750
Same answer as always:
>Debain
LTS release
>Fedora
6 month cycle, still reliable
>Arch
Latest and greatest, as reliable as you make it

Those are the default mainstream distros. If those are "too hard" for you, there are popular forks like Ubuntu / Linux Mint for Debian. Or Nobara / Bazzite for Fedora. And CachyOS / EndevourOS for Arch.

If you are a noob, noob, noob: Just go with fucking Mint or Zorin.

Is there a distro that lets me use the baby scheduler??

Baby CPU Scheduler

This is a very basic and lightweight yet very performant CPU scheduler. You can use it for learning purposes as a base ground CPU scheduler on Linux. Notice that many features are disabled to make this scheduler as simple as possible.

Baby Scheduler is very lightweight and powerful for normal usage. I am using (baby-dl) as my main scheduler and sometimes I switch back to CacULE for testing. The throughput in Baby Scheduler is higher due to the task loadbalancer that I made for Baby Scheduler. The loadbalancing is done via only one CPU which is CPU0 in which CPU0 scan all other CPUs and move one task in every tick. The balancing is only depending on the number of tasks (i.e. no load, weight or other factors).

Baby scheduler is only 1036 LOC where 254 LOC of it are just dependent functions that are copied from CFS without any changes to let the scheduler compile and run. You can find all Baby code in bs.c, bs.h, and numa_fair.h.
Flavors

Currently there are three flavors of Baby Scheduler

Deadline Scheduling (dl) - main
Virtual Run Time Scheduling (vrt)
Round Robin Scheduling (rr)

All the three flavors have the same tasks load balancing method. They only differ in the strategy of picking the next task to run, and other minor differences.

/thread, except:
>LTS release
Strictly speaking, Debian LTS is actually a different thing to Debian: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
>popular forks
If we're including Nobara as a Fedora derivative, then we should include PikaOS for Debian.
>Just go with fucking Mint
We need to stop recommending Mint until it gets Wayland support. This is because many modern laptops need HiDPI on modern Intel graphics, which doesn't work without tearing on X.Org.

Debian if you want stable releases, Arch for rolling release.

you could just run debian sid or devuan ceres and have all three, but that defeats the purpose of having a slow distro, so why would you?

just force font DPI to 144, in my experience it'll look much better than other kinds of scaling options, X or Wayland

Debian

Both main versions are based on Ubuntu. In theory both Distros use the same packages. But just like Ubuntu, Zorin uses a modified version of the GNOME desktop.

So you get a more modern approach on Zorin on the Desktop and Display Server side (GNOME-Wayland) Linux Mint uses Cinnamon-X11. In the end, both are rock solid and basically compatible with everything ubuntu/debian.
