The definitive Linux tier list. It will make many upset, but I explain why there are so many pointless distros that score so low on the tier list.

i dont see bodhi
WTF with this old man, rating distros guessing know everything, all cases and uses, no sense your tier list, i hope will be the last
Tell me that you are afraid from cybersec:
Good video. But I must say, the reasoning on this tier list all over the place. It made this video hard to follow.
This video is the reason why as of now Linux will never be mainstream get all your groups together and make one for everybody
I want to play dota 2, browse on brave web browser, and edit videos on capcut or something like it simple and easy. Looking for easy install and stability for these 3 things. Any recommendations for a distro that would be perfect for me?
I was recommended pop!_OS because of the out-the-box nvidia drivers, but i quickly began getting frustrated at gnome, so i ended up installing kde-plasma on it and it worked for a while, then i switched to kubuntu just to free up the space that gnome took up. And it works for now. Still, now im considering switching to debian.
"if you dont know how to install/the inner working of arch, i dont think you should be in an arch distribution" bruhhhh
just moved from win11 -> cachyOS. definitely dont feel the need to understand arch in order to use this OS….
I basically look for look and feel of the OS, I know the gui and wrappers can be changed but I don't like a lot of un-necessary stuff in my distro. Right now using Linux Mint, it just feels right, and I appreciate your gaming distro options, going to check some of those out. ðŸ‘
Kind of newish to Linux, decided to move to arch because I’m stubborn, and despite the pain of learning to use the terminal I’m loving it.
I appreciate the opinions from an IT pro
I was use debian, ubuntu, kubuntu, arch, fedora kde, kde neon, popOS and today i use endeavourOS.
Just use what make you comfort and why you need it, not by tier list suggestion.
Like…. this whole idea, and the first five minutes man…. You are a Ken Overstreet and have no idea. Go watch Dr. K
This made me want to go back to debian
Arch is for self righteous people who think they are cool. Mint just works, all the time, every time. I never even think about it.
I'm actually on kubuntu rn, and I'm gonna try to go to arch on Tuesday (this will not go wrong)
Your picture should be in the pointless tier. Arrogance on steroids.
Great tier list. I’d have liked a category “great for developersâ€
13:45 shots fired 😂
Glad to know I am using the supreme one 🙂
Linux Mint is my sweet spot after that it's Arch.
Sorry but endeavourOS is supreme.
8:05
I suppose CachyOS ought to go here, since Clear Linux is now dead.
I F with that tier list good stuff
Hey thanks for the video. Where would you place Omarchy ?
I still don't get why Ubuntu made it in the Devil tier. Does it have anything smelly like RedHat or it was just because of the snap?
Fedora has nothing to do with RHEL. It serves as a base for RHEL to implement features, especially security features. but Fedora is independent of RHEL (source: Fedora Documentation)
Debian can also be everyone (noob friendly and experts). I know absolutely nothing about Debian, used to using Fedora, and I managed to install it in less than 10 minutes, thanks to the graphical installation.
25:50 No hate from me. I agree with most of your choices. I am going through the switch from Mint to Debian myself. I have been running my Mint box(s) for years so getting Debian up to speed with all my little tweaks I have done to Mint is going to be a time consuming process, but I love making changes and tweaking things on my PC so now winter is coming I am starting a new project of making the switch.
Kali is not pointless; the whole point of Kali over Debian is that it's a live distro that can be used for forensics or recovery, with the useful tools already installed. If you want to do the same with Debian you'd have to install a system and then install the packages, which kind of defeats the purpose of working on the system you're trying to diagnose .
Its 2 year how about new updates about tier list and Fedora is still in devils tier ?
Honestly the main thing that is keeping me from switching to Linux at this point is the community. There are so many comments and posts where people have such a superiority complex and they talk down to new users even though EVERYONE’s experiences are valid. We can all agree Windows is jank but at least the community acknowledges that it’s jank. The Linux community tends to sweep that sort of stuff under the rug
Yo, all you non-Arch Linux scrubs—Arch is the absolute boss of distros, so quit wasting time with trash like Ubuntu or that ancient fossil Debian. Snap out of it! Ubuntu's this bloated hog that gobbles 1GB+ RAM for zero reason, while Debian's stuck in 2005 with crusty old packages. Meanwhile, Arch cruises on just 150MB like a champ with bleeding-edge everything. Both are corpo junk and old-school garbage for total noobs who fear real Linux vibes. Smart folks know Arch rules with its killer Wiki, endless tweaks, and pure power—everything else is for lazy bums okay with meh.
Arch is the top-tier master race.
BTW, I use Arch.
So of the stuff in the new person tier, what's the best for someone who likes to game? I ask because Mint seems awfully attractive
The fact that 2 bad distro is at top called supreme distro this guy don't hvae any knowledge
Debian although super stable its repo is outdated and u need to extra configure if u want to install some thing for example debian 13 don't have mysql it has maria db
And then there comes arch linux 😂 kids install arch just to say arch btw 😂 arch is super fast due to pacman but its broken and cutting edge and its feature get broken and its more about learning how os works instead of serious work
Fedora is dnf based a little slower and also cutting edge its feature again gets broken
In linux u only need ubuntu, kubuntu, linux mint or pop, zorin based on ur personal user experience they all work the same with stable lts ubuntu repo
all of these distros can go in pointless because they're all forks of lfs 😉
Thank fkn god you put VoidLinux in Creative and Unique, I would hate you if you put it elsewhere 🙂
I’m new to Linux, coming over from windows 10 I’m using Fedora workstation. Super simple I’m having no issues, why should i switch?
Linux mint for me
