i use arch btw
Me: Linux beginner
Me: Installs Arch
Few days of struggling
Love it now
Arch Linux gang
I'll make my way to Arch. Just have to watch a bunch of videos and learn programming first.
@@teancoffee208 Nah you don't really need to learn programming for arch, it's mostly just remembering a bunch of commands and understanding some basic concepts. Like how software installation works and what things you can touch and can't touch to not break it.
I to installed Arch as a beginner
I've only ever tried Ubuntu, and didn't really like it. I've got interested in Linux again, and Arch looks quite cool. But everyone deters you from using it, if you are a beginner.
18:10 “Now let’s break down what kind of a person would use what...”
Thanks
You're probably not gonna see this as this is over two years old, but bless you Titus, you opened up the door to a whole new world for me. My laptop now runs Linux, and the only real reason I still daily drive Windows on my main is the Adobe suite which unfortunately is necessary for work. But yes, Linux is awesome and I took the plunge thanks to your work here on UA-cam (did some of your Windows stuff too and it works like magic. That script!). Keep it up.
For the first time you didn't start with "In this video, I am going to..."
lol
Had a patreon member say "Switch it up!"... He couldn't have been more right!
@@ChrisTitusTech So next time you try some weed, and try it backwards???
Looking forward to a sadface thumbnail next!

Btw I use an Manjaro which is an arch-base distro got em
I'm digging into the i3 community build. I like it but I had to tinker a lot with it.
I will install Arch Linux with a Laptop next time for sure. Then I will proudly say "btw I use Arch"
@@hewfrebie2597 Me too. If I get a new Ultrabook than I'm gonna use ARCH forever... ☝️💪
@@lyspec nice good luck
Btw,I use arch with i3😅😅😂😂
I use Manjaro cause of one simple reason: It‘s the only Linux that works with my Keyboard.
I tried Mint, Ubuntu, Fedora and some other distros and I tried various things I found on the Internet, but all of them failed. I couldn’t use the Keyboard. I always had to plug in an external mouse and Keyboard into my Laptop to use them, which was quite annoying.
But one day I thought I give Manjaro a try and it just worked. Keyboard and Trackpad worked and I didn’t need to install any drivers for the Wifi to work.
I use a MacBook Pro (13“ 2016, no Touchbar) with MacOS Catalina and Windows 10 Bootcamp and Manjaro Linux (Gnome Desktop) is installed on an external SSD. First I just wanted to test Linux, but now I use it quite often.
Manjaro is becoming one of the go to Distros. I getting to the point where I'd recommend it for a starter distro.
Manjaro is really the distro i recommend. I mean, the give you a well configured Arch with well configured Windowmanagers out of the box.
I am using manjaro on a MacBook Pro mid 2012 (lovit)
I’ve also found Solus works without config for my 2015 MacBook
I know I'm watching 2 years later but this man knows what is talking. Recommends Debian over Ubuntu and others famous deb based systems. Thanks to not proliferate the same opinion from all over the internet. Debian is excellent, you just need to learn how to use it.
My daughter she 7 she plays around with peppermint OS she loves it my wife has no clue about computers I got her on Linux Mint they never have to know about the evil windows
My 10 years old son has KDE neon and never had any problems for his needs (just basic obviously). Whoever said that you need to be really tech savvy to use linux is just someone scared to try it
My sister browse net and use my pc on daily...and whats funny she dont even know its linux😂
Good man. They are lucky to have you as a husband and father. :)
@Lics Norgi What exactly happened?
@Lics Norgi lol a noob cant wrap his head around more complex distros but is too prideful to try an easy distro
I made the switch from W10 to Linux Mint Cinnamon 1 month ago on my main machine and I'm absolutely happy with it. I think I'll hardly go back to Windows after being a user since Windows 3.11...
Every now and then I install Windows 10, few days later I go back to Manjaro.
Once you go Linux, it's hard to go back to Windows
@@user-or9gr5py4c unless X stops working after a while, needing a reboot on my PC
I'm Fed up with Windows X, spying, forced updates. And having to reconfigure my PC every time they crash it with the forced updates. It's my machine. I have it for a specific set of tasks and it seems every update gets in the way of the specific tasks.
Just want an OS that works when I turn it on. So I can get to the tasks I turned the computer on to do.
As long as you don't need any of the windows software why would you? But seriously 99%of pc usage is running either this windows software or browser and win10 runs firefox as well as arch:)
@@JSCB-365 I echo that sentiment. I want to turn it on, make what I need to make, perhaps watch a video, and then turn it off. Although the desire to tinker with the (Linux) system will probably develop at some point, for now I simply want out of W7 and Chrome.
I did it! After a year of watching Chris I finally installed Linux! I had a bit of trouble but it's running and I'm loving it so far, so much to discover.
Thanks Chris!
@Andrew Hi Andrew. Linux Mint. I am really really trying not to distro hop but Chris Titus talks about so many it's hard.
One year seeing awesome Linux videos without trying? Wow
@@gbenselum I was a bit lazy but besides that I needed a machine to install it on and I finally got one.
I like debian most too. My favourite Linux desktop.

Terrific breakdown. Thank you. I would like to see you do a more task focussed breakdown to follow up with. eg. which distros and services to consider for server functions (maybe even including prepackaged installs like Zentyal, NethServer etc.), and which distros to consider for desktop uses (most reliable, flexible and usable for daily office tasks). This video is a great starting place for anyone wanting to dabble into the Linux world.
You cleared up a lot of things for me. Like package managers.
Thanks!
It's because of you that I'm using linux mint right now. Thank you.
I use Linux Mint and Mate as the desktop environment. I love it so much that I donated some money to them. Highly recommended.
Very quickly becoming my favorite UA-cam channel, rapidly getting better too,
Cheers bruv 🤙
Thanks for being REAL and forthcoming! Refreshing.
Thanks Rick!
As a noob, I appreciate this straightforward explanation of the genealogy. Thank you.
I switched from Windows to Linux Mint Cinnamon, around two years ago, I just love it, I am not interested in trying any other distros, Mint pushes all the buttons for me. Love your videos man.
I am in the same boat, I wouldn't mind trying another distro but frankly Mint has been awesome. I installed it on all my old laptops and they all run again. Anyways, Mint has been great, but i game alot and my work needs windows so I find myself using linux less and less.
I installed mint yesterday. Being from windows background, it really feels like "home".
@Travis Bare yes. Steam and protondb work really well for the most part but the 4 main games I play are unplayable on Linux. But most single player games work great.
Great video Chris! Thanks for the work you put into your videos.
After doing a lot of distro hopping these are the questions I used to evaluate distros when I decided to settle down and find a home. My primary goal was to find a something that got out of the way so I could focus on productivity:
* Can I easily install and update proprietary software, especially nvidia drivers?
* I "need" certain up to date programs, but also want a stable tested system that's resilient to user error. What distro balances those needs best?
* If I do break the system how time-consuming is the process to reinstall and set up the environment the way I previously had it?
* How many dev tools and other programs would I have to manually update and build from source (for instance ccls)?
* Is there an active knowledgeable community and good documentation?
Curious to see guesses about what I ended up picking :P
manjaro?
@John Smith I love gentoo and wanted to make it work as a daily driver, but of course it doesn't fit my goals. I way too frequently do something wrong with upgrading the kernel/rebuilding drivers and have to boot into a USB and go in to fix everything.
I did recently have fun with a brief stint turning gentoo into a semi clone of my actual choice by making it flatpak and container focused, which really cut down on compile times and ebuild conflicts, but if you do that, what's really the point of using gentoo instead of something easier to maintain.
xdmx Ubuntu? Please reveal...I’ve walked a similar path.
Great vid! The first distro I installed was Ubuntu back in 2007. I used it for a year, and while I liked it very much I ended up switching to Linux Mint in 2008, and am still using Mint as my main OS today. Back in the day I loved Windows 95, 98 and XP. I even embraced Windows 7, and still keep it as a dual boot option, but since then Windows has become such a mess. I'd much rather use a Linux distro.
Have had Arch for many years as my daily driver and installed Manjaro on my new laptop. Love the convenience it adds on top of the flexibility that Arch offers
I love this video so much. You're so right. Fundamental analysis is so important as a salesperson but not so much as someone just wanting to try Linux for the first time.
The fun part is the distro hopping. In the process you will soon discover what is compatible with your hardware.
Yeah, like how parrot os thought you dont have good drivers then removed my wlan and Bluetooth drivers completely. Now i cant use them. It had been 5 months.
@@alkaupadhyay7650 lmao
I think new users should always be told about arch wiki so that they can learn (if they want to), it always generates more Interest in people imho
Very good point, one of the places I've learned the most about Linux.
@@ChrisTitusTech The wiki can't help you much. I used it several times before I realized the best way to do what I need is either "trial and error" or turn DuckDuckGo upside down until I find what I need.
And btw, there's a pure Arch out there with only a basic GUI installer added (kinda reminds me of MS-DOS interface) - nothing else was changed or added and I recommend it to everyone. It's called Anarchy Linux (which could be pronounced as "An Archy Linux"). Anarchy Linux doesn't even have its own repository and uses solely the repos of Arch. The ISO name suggests it's only a CLI installer interface but it's not - there is in fact a simple GUI installer.
I am a Gentoo user but I often end up reading Arch linux documentation because is more complete and updated and It is just perfect.
@@valso Clearly you're doing something wrong, from my experience the wiki is dead accurate for the specific issues it outlines, for everything else you will find people on bbs, manjaro, antergos and a host of other forums that have likely encountered the issues you face and get an answer. The arch wiki is very comprehensive but obviously doesn't cover all scenarios.
For example its not obvious that certain distros like Manjaro add specific packages for thumbnaill support (KDE) or for mtp access by a file manager you need gvsf-mtp (Deepin) or for extracting files you need file-roller (Deepin) you can infer some of this info through searching and even checking the file manager you use and seeing what dependencies are listed on a package in arch repos, that's saved me many times. Takes a little creativity but you can solve issues with some effort.
@@dennisgatere7821 The most of the answers I have ever needed I have found in the Arch forum, not the wiki. I use the wiki only for deps search, that's the thing it's mostly useful.
great and very informative video! the best I've watched so far. - thanks a lot Chris!!
Thanks for making the efforts to explain this ... as a 20 year Mac user I’m ready for more customization.. vs updates !
Been using Manjaro KDE Plasma 5 for 9 months after distro hopping for nearly 2 years. The longest and sustained distro for me till now. Also compatible with my GPU drivers and can really take stress.
Finally, after going through dozens of videos, I found one that explains the basics in simple language. Thank you!!!
Cheers Chris, found this super helpful, keep em coming!
Excellent video and informative for new users. I've been using Debian for nearly ten years. Great OS.
I don't generally comment on videos, but I just wanna say - I really appreciate this video, and your passion and efforts for newcomers, for "marketing" Linux.
Very informative and helpful video. I tried Ubuntu, and it was fine. Now, I'm running Linux Mint because I wanted to try a different distro. So far, Linux Mint is great.
Thank you for this video. I liked the approach, and your comments for new/common users
Subscribed. This is the best breakdown for a newcomer like myself I've seen.
I think we should start explaining Linux to new users by comparing the parts of it from Windows and Mac OS.
Questions like "what is does apt mean in Windows or Mac environment?"
It'll be easier..
I was quite impressed with Linux Mint out of the box. It has pretty much all I wanted as a media server like 5 years ago and it's been working just fine.
Thanks Chris, that was really informative!
Really love your videos, thank you for the tips, I'm really considering switching to Linux for my laptop and was a bit lost in the first step which is the distribution choice. I'm a real boob on Linux and wanted to find something that could help me progressively learn how all work. Your advices helped me a lot thank you !
1. VirtualBox to try out distros (focus on popular ones).
2. You can doul-boot once you pick one you like.
3. Run in Linux:
timedatectl set-local-rtc 1
Then make sure the clock has the right time.
(That will fix the problem of your clock getting messed up when switch OSs).
10:03 It's good to mention that Red Hat was recently acquired by IBM
According to a Red Hat employee, no dress code yet.
hey Chris, I have been using MX Linux now for 2 months, well since I started, what is your opinion of this distribution, I love it, off the box it reminded me of Windows but infintely better...thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for saying what I've been thinking in the first 2 mins of this video.
Started using linux with Kali...this video has helped alot to choose distros suited for me...Thank you.
Hey Chris, I am a linux user for quite a while now. And I have watched a lot of "the best distro" movies. Tho your version is the one that hits the nail on the head. It is so true that linux doesnt have a PR department. Thank you for this clip.
Best way to sum up your videos: sober. You have a no-nonsense take on this, and you're not repeating what a lot of people already say. Your recommendations are very close to how I approached it back in '05:
Mint --> K/X/L/Ubuntu --> Debian --> Pop!/Neon --> Fedora Gnome --> Manjaro/Antergos --> Arch (btw).
How come no coverage on OpenSUSE in this?
I also use Arch btw.
OpenSUSE has a different package manager, it's user-friendly and comes with GUI by default. It's bloated though and has 2000+ packages installed by default. Leap if you want a stable distro and don't want to update much, Tumbleweed if you want rolling-release and you want to constantly update and try new features.
Excellent breakdown, very thoughtful and sensible.
Thank you for your Commitment to teach and break down
16:45 - "You can make it look and feel like windows 95" 7u6frtjyfd5rik8 YESSSS!
I'm soo getting this.
Use openbsd. GNU/Linux is overrated, with the exception of Gentoo
Be carefull with BSD - they are even more obscure than Linux itself.
For new users any BSD is not a good choice.
Advanced users will choose for themselves do they need BSD or not.
I want mine to look like windows 1.
[Floral Shoppe plays in the background]
Roland I'd rather use ReactOS as my main system than BSD. BSD is so overrated.
My first Linux installation was Slackware, about 20 years ago. I barely remember how I did it. GNU/Linux has come a long way.
Slackware 20 years ago? You used black magic and probably sold your soul to get it running. That's how you got it running. Late 90s and early 2000s Linux is sketchy AF
The best explanation on linux distros. Thank you so much.
Thanks so much for this video. It was incredibly helpful. I was beginning to have distribution fatigue among the hundreds of choices. I like your philosophy of being a "purist" (I think that was the language), by which you mean using the base-level distro, which seems to be Debian, Red Hat / Fedora, and Arch. I want a distribution that I will pick and stick with basically forever, and I think I will probably be going with Debian.
Started using GNU/Linux - Debian distribution after reading "In the Beginning... Was the Command Line" by Neal Stephenson; thanks for the taxonomy, great video!
After distro hopping for a long time. My first long term distro was Zorin OS 12.4, i loved it but Ubuntu 16.04 is reaching eol i thought about getting a new distro. This time I said no to derivatives and went straight to Solus Budgie, i can't even describe how good and stable it is, the community is great and helpful.
It like the distro was tailor made to me lol.
Solus is great but they don't include enough application
And even if someone ask to add
They say won't fix
Solus was ok but I quickly gave up on it. Too many bugs and PlayonLinux wasnt working fully properly. Not even the "install program not listed" was showing up. Mind you, I ran Solus on a HP with 8gb RAM so I'm not making this shit up. Solus is a dumpster fire as far as I'm concerned.
I've been looking for a channel with someone who speaks my language. Thank you, I think I found it ^^
Really helpful video man
The tip you made about the non existent perfect distribution, it's all about your own needs and how you get them working on it really helped clearing my mind
Just got mint on my machine and I feel like a kid with a brand new toy on Christmas hehe
When I first started working with Linux a few years ago these videos would have helped greatly. I am still no expert by any means but these are quite informative and glad someone is trying to properly teach new people what Linux is really like
If every "Linux-Marketer" would be like you, we wouldn't have marketing-problems.
No matter what I do I always end up back at arch.
You've shown me the ways of btrfs as well.
For me it really is everything I want. I boot it up and it works exactly with everything I need in less than 20 minutes post install.
Wish this video was out sooner, I started learning linux on Gentoo, which I later learned was probably the hardest distribution to use
First thing... does it have an awesome name and logo.
PUPPY... DAMN SMALL LINUX... PEPPERMINT... SPARKYLINUX
yeah yeah, "features, stability, support"... those are nice too, but whats the point if you are stuck with an OS with a weaksauce name
Just migrate from windows to Manjaro and I'm pretty happy about it. BTW arch wiki helped me a lot! Strongly recommend it to new Linux user like me
Thank you, I've been trying too tell people for a while now that Manjaro can be used by the average user, and not just tech geeks, but I get so much push back from that, that it sometimes makes me want to pull my hair out lol! Also personally I use Manjaro with Budgie DE.
@@CommodoreFan64 I often recommend Manjaro, especially for gaming. Steam shows its importance, just take a look at Steam's survey. Manjaro is there.
@@MarkHobbes You are not kidding on that one, and with both Valve, and the Wine development team saying Ubuntu, and even Debian to some extent is not the future of Linux, that really speaks volumes in my book, and again Manjaro is as of right now the best way for most people to get into an Arch based system, and even if Valve has not said it out right, Arch seems to be the branch they are standing behind the most at this point.
I use Manjaro Cinnamon on my ASUS and I'm not switching back to Windows on that laptop. Windows 10 just destroyed the Hgst hard disk drive that was inside of it. I'm gonna downgrade back to 7 from 10 because 10 is fucking trash
@@MarkHobbes What games are you running on Manjaro? I don't get anything to run on Mint. No League of Legends, no Mordhau and others. Only those which have a Linux version like Counter Strike GO.
Really interesting and helpful video!!
Thanks for the linux breakdown. I'm pretty new to it. I've set up a couple vm distros using windows hyper v. Trying to learn structure and command line stuff.
thx, my First Linux Distro in 1998 was Debian and will be.
i like Debian sir ! i like most of the distros of linux. I want to know more on linux then vs now from you sir ! Do you use discord ? or any ? i would like to communicate with you sir! I have recently discovered and i have switched from windows to linux and i can say it was a nice and a proper use of my step. Thanks !
sir.
That description of the "perfect distro" sounds like Gentoo and Arch post install. However the install is it's own animal that's not for everyone.
So true, finding the starting point is always a difficult thing I think we all struggle with.
Arch
>systemd
nope
@Deon Denis There was this 3 hour presentation about it and I still don't know.
@@lambdanil There was this philosophy that Linux programs were supposed to follow that was something along the lines of "each program should do one thing and do it well" creating this kind of modularity but systemd and the other things it connects with tries to oversee many things all at once and if something goes wrong with one of those things it can break your system and finding the issue can be a pain or something along those lines
@Deon Denis Tldr it does to many things. Imo an initializer should only start the system and handle run levels not do a bunch of other things.
Howdy, love your videos as always this one really helped me get into a head zone. Question: I purchased your distro for my Raspberry Pi and was curious as to whether you had videos of you working on that, setting up and getting started, and maybe just touch more on how it functions? I really like how it's laid out and operates but I'm so new I don't know how to do certain things like adjust the resolution. Thanks for seeing this if ya do. :)
Chris. I just want to say that I friggen love you and your channel. One of my favorite UA-cam University Professors.
I tried different ones, but I seem to always come back to Mint.
Yeah, Mint is pretty awesome! It's the first distro I've used. I like it so much I don't want to ever go back to Windows.
Mint for me, is the easiest coming from windows.
First love never dies
Same here
Yup. Feels awesome!!!
Besides the AUR the Arch wiki is such a big thing for me.
You don't even have to use arch to use it
Thanks for the video man, really helpful!
Thanks for the info because I was so confused of choosing my first Linux. now that I watch your vid and install pop is your right about it thanks idol.
_"There is no distribution that you're gonna go, 'This is awesome! Everything works! It has everything I need.' "_
Linux Mint: hold my beer...
I am not a gamer, but use MX-linux and it pretty much has a everything works out of the box distro...
Linux mint not compatible with canon printers. Even one works, you can't use two printer-office and home simultaneously.
Yes because this one man show uses the very good Ubuntu LTS as its base system.
@Shermil linux mint is compatible with Canon printers. Ive been using it with a Canon printer for years
@@shermil12 I have a canon printer, it works like a charm since Mint 18. Try again...

Comes packed with everything!
Dual boot with Win10
PS - Clonezilla can Image Dual boots!
A Ubuntu Studio user on my desktop and love it, have used it for about two years or so, still distro-hopping on my laptop, currently have MX Linux on it.
Thanks to you, I've learned a great deal from watching your videos. When I first started following you, I was solely relying on the Windows operating system and its graphical user interface to install my applications. However, your content has inspired me to switch to Ubuntu Linux. I've come to appreciate the power and efficiency of using the terminal in Linux, as well as the improved experience with PowerShell in Windows 11. Your insightful tutorials and demonstrations have been instrumental in expanding my knowledge and helping me embrace these new tools.
Thanks so much for a great video , just switching over to Linux so it’s all new to me and very confusing , your video was very helpful, look forward to more
I first experience Linux with Ubuntu but when time goes by I started to ditch and hate Ubuntu and install vanilla Debian as daily OS
And why? Because it is boring? Tesla and other companys use Ubuntu for one reason: it is a out of the box GNU/Linux System with a good LTS Concept. Debian is mostly deprecated and horrible on "new" (1-2 year old) hardware.
Debian testing is till mostly stable and has newer packages. Won't that be better?
@@julienbear5111 ubuntu servers are great when any down time in detrimental that’s probably why
Great video! Have been running Fedora on my personal machines since it came out. Never felt a need to move off. Upgrade to new versions is pretty seamless now. I also run a lot of Ubuntu servers and agree with your point that distro doesn’t matter that much. It’s good to be familiar with a few package managers, but the rest is pretty much the same. I use Gnome and I like it’s minimalistic look and feel, although it’s heavier than other true minimalist desktops. My approach is go for bleeding edge for development and stable distro for production.
A true hat tipper. M'lady
glad you understand, sometimes toooo much choice between distrubitions. thanks
2:30 Distribution is not just how it installs packages but also what packages it has in the repository, how often it receives updates, how stable it is, what kind of support/community it has, etc.
Can't get enough of KDE Neon here!
"there is no marketing..." laughs in Canonical
True, but still. I bet my soul that I could go to 50 random people in my area and maybe 10, if even that would have heard of Ubuntu or Linux in general. Lol
@@theinquisitor18 none
Excellent talk. So well explained!
I suscribed to your channel as you explain clear about the distros. I have an old laptop HP Pavilion zd8000 and I will try to use FEDORA ... thank you ... SALUDOS DESDE PERU!!
KDE Neon has everything including the kitchen sink.
I love neon!
huh, my experience with arch was bulletproof for about 3 years until a dying keyboard and a poorly vetted rm
Scorpion Hackers Arch is Arch. i use arch btw
Thank you for sharing; today is 9/19/2020; first time to watch your UA-cam video series; I'm also a long time Windows user 20+; now its time to learn and use Linux to my old PC workstation with Windows.
Very helpful, thank you!
Is Linux Mint great. I likeLinux mint the most.
Open suse is great for new and experienced users even though in my experience it's glitchy and it crashed frequently
Thanks for the big picture, which is always the component missing in the linux world. PS. I use base Debian for years, never had the urge to use someting else.
A very good and well explained video on Linux distros. I like that someone is out there supporting Linux. I absolutely love Linux I use Pop OS on my System 76 Lemur Pro laptop and Linux Mint dual booted with Windows 10 in my home desktop. I use Windows for just in case I need to play some new games even though Linux gaming is getting better every day but still Windows is still the benchmark for gaming os.
It’s weird how this ended up in my recommended one year too late
LOVE the shirt :D
Having tried two or three other KDE distributions I finally settled on MX Linux because it's easy to install and it just works.
My first Linux distro was Debian way back at version 3.0. At this point, I've used almost all of the major distributions. My favorite is probably Debian or Arch though I do have a soft spot for Gentoo.
This is hands down, the definitive video on how to choose a distro.
I've used Linux Puppy for years love puppy
Another great video CT and LOVEEEEE the shirt ... LLAP
Very good breakdown and thanx for helping make an intro/beginner's choice. Mint & or Pop OS's By the way do you recommend Pop over Mint for Steam OS or vice a versa? As per Vanella Debian Linux is that a production server or workstation?
Also Whatever happened to Slackware and what do you think of it?
