Fedora for me, what I started on. Want to try Slackware though.

[โ€“] limelight79@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is Slackware still active?

I started with it in the late 90s and tried to keep using it for a long time, but I got tired of dealing with dependencies. Eventually I switched to Kubuntu on my desktop and laptop, and Debian for my server. They may have added dependency checking since I gave up on it though. It has been a few years.

It's definitely still active, Praise "Bob". Idk about the dependancies though.

[โ€“] Junkdata@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Def still active and sbopkg with sbotools as the main gui to take care of your dependency needs.

Thanks for the info!
