18 comments - First distro i installed was Slackware 3.1 i believe, form 12 1.44 diskettes. Later soon, S.u.S.E 5.1 and allways one of it till present Tumbleweed ... but also a large time "Gentoo" and my own L.F.S ... Never could install a Debian, i believe it is a very great distro ... nothing to do with "ubuntu" ... never a RedHat {Fedora} one, bur i know its also a fine distro ... just SuSE have allways been a very usefull and easy to use.
i couldn't pay attetion to anything other than the first picture of the galaxy on the wall, crooked and disaligned 😂 Jokes appart, great video! Thank you!
Gentoo with distcc or binary host is the way to go. Ultra rolling (straight outta github) or debian stable, YOU CHOOSE ! and ofc fastest performance and most security
For some reason I've found better support for older hardware with Alma than Rocky

Jokes appart, great video! Thank you!
now i'm wondering: Alma vs Rocky? Planned usage: workstation and/or heavily modified (stripped) system for thin client netbooks.
Alma has financial support from Cloud Linux. Rocky was started up by the creator of CentOS.
good weekend jay !!
Great video. Very nice details!
Excellent video tutorial on Linux distro's. Thanks
Alma and Rocky should combine forces to continue the CentOS legacy
Very nice explanation! thank you!
What's the opening soundtrack?
He's actually the guy behind Learn Linux TV.
Eh I run Gentoo on my server and use it to kill nvme drives on Linode!
Mostly because I'm working on development and need the build server, lol
What about Distros for Raspis? They are often used as Servers, aren't they? So maybe Raspian, and others?
Can Slackware be used as a server os
Yes, we currently support Slackware 14.2 List of distros are available here www.linode.com/distributions/
Manage my packages?
Slackware: no u!
Where's Alpine?
Alpine isn't really all that popular as a server base. It's more used as a base image for containers.
@@nevoyu agreed. It's just a little too light IMO - makes sense for containers
Take a shot when this dude says "well."

Oracle Linux
I'm a bit late, but can you cover NixOS?
i use Arch btw
rocky or debian is a better game server
Open SUSE leap is going away and no longer supported.
One thing, he forget to mention rolling release distribution like Arch Linux
but this is rolling and unstable
Linode supports it but it's probably not as popular on servers. Arch is best for the bleeding edge hobbyist.
Not useful
Sorry man, but if you just had to "talk", please post your stuff as a Podcast and not a UA-cam video.
