I'm still using Windows 10 on my personal computer. Oh I'll probably have to upgrade someday, some game or other program will come out with exclusivity of some kind and I'll eventually install Windows 11. But for the most part, I don't want to fuck with it, everything works and I really just don't want the hassle.

Running Linux Mint on an old laptop, mostly because it's too old to decently run Windows 10. Don't use it for much, mostly troubleshooting things.

At work the laptops are Windows 10 and I don't think there's a push to update. Of course all the servers are Redhat Enterprise Linux, and that's where the majority of my work takes place.

Windows 10 because I don't want to deal with the hassle of anything else.

Linux because it runs fast and does what I need it to.

Chromebook because I just dont fucking care anymore.

Dude, except for gaming, Chromebook is the unironically the best laptop platform I have found. If you get one that's not cheaped-out on its hardware, then it does the simple stuff quickly, quite well, and without any extra nonsense, and then you install Crostini and you have a full-featured Linux environment with excellent driver support. If you want gaming you're screwed, but for everything else it's clearly superior IMO.

I was 100 into Stadia for gaming on my laptop before it was axed. I'm still bitter about that.

I used to play Serious Sam on Stadia on my (not overly fancy) Chromebook and it worked smoothly 99% of the time. All those games, yeah it was sad :-(.

at least I got a couple grand payback. i used that to get a steam deck which is pretty magical.

M2 Macbook Air for personal use and my freelance work and an AMD Ryzen 5600 with a Radeon 6700 XT with Ubuntu for ML/AI hobby work and Windows 11 for some minor gaming here and there.

I use ArchLinux BTW, because

  1. It's very minimal, no bloatware
  2. AUR
    ~~3. I feel superior~~
  3. It just works™*

We're an all-linux household.

  • Endeavoros on my gaming desktop
  • Garuda on my Framework laptop
  • Kubuntu on my partner's Framework laptop
  • Endeavoros on my server. Plus a handful of Pis and appliances.

Artix Linux, cuz systemd isn’t minimal enough for my insanity, and I don’t have time to compile Gentoo rn
