We’ve been running various flavors of Ubuntu and Mint for about 20 years. It’s tremendously stable. I don’t have deep IT skills, so I bred a Penguinista. Gotta play the Long Game.

When I was in the later years of high school, I started playing with a Red Hat Linux setup. I went through a phase in college where I literally threw every operating system on my box that I could conceivably get running, but eventually settled on dual-booting Windows (for gaming performance) and Gentoo Linux. I’ve had a few issues over the decades, but it’s worth noting that before last fall, this computer had lain dormant in my desk since 2016, and I was able to clean out the dust and fire it up and upgrade it to the latest packages and kernel without too many issues.
