Pros:
-Very nice with minimal resource usage.
-Able to more easily change default programs as opposed to GNOME3
-Built on Qt framework, a framework designed for all developers, not just GNOME devs
-Amazing deepin-specific programs. Everything is very clean and polished
-Pretty up to date packages. It's basically Debian Unstable + deepin desktop but with every package heavily tested
-All of the programs I wanted to install work flawlessly
Cons:
-Deepin is SLIGHTLY buggy. Definitely less than KDE Plasma but sometimes a program won't close correctly, Surprisingly, after a while it actually DOES close and everything returns to normal.
-The software center collects a very small amount of system information with HTTP encryption. The data it collects is completely ethical and nothing to be alarmed about but I do wish it would use HTTPS encryption. No harm intended here

Although designed to be more of a learning platform for Arch and designed to help you get your "feet wet", Arco Linux easily stands out among the many other Arch distros for its ability to rival Antergos or Manjaro in terms of user friendly install AND sleek out of the box desktop environment.
Boots you into a fully customized XFCE setup with plank as a left-side dock. Icons are sleek Sardi-Mono.
Comes with fully customized and pre-setup, XFCE, Openbox, and i3-gaps to choose from out of box. All are available, and customized to fit the theme of the distro. Sleek compositing setup with Compton, and also includes numerous Conky's and plank themes to choose from.
It's safe to say this distro has the MOST themes i've ever seen from any distro ever released.
To further the concept of ArcoLinux as a teaching platform, Erik Dubois and the Arco Linux team have created an immense number of tutorials ranging from "installing Arch Linux for the first time" to "Installing [enter a desktop environment here] on your own system". The sheer amount of guidance and knowledge provided is truly an immense resource that can be well-appreciated by all, newbies and veterans alike.
Kudos to Erik Dubois and the Arco Linux team on an amazing distro that easily rivals Manjaro and other top dogs. I can't wait to see where Arco Linux can go from here

It's pretty hard to have any good thoughts on this OS when (1) you can't load it and (2) there is no step by step instruction with perhaps a section called What to do if this doesn't work.
I downloaded Zorin 9 , got a light blue screen and a text help screen but none of the help offered worked. Then I downloaded Zorin 12.3 . Couldn't even get a help screen. Then I purchased Zorin 12.3 and got a message of an unknown keyword in configuration file followed by non alpha numeric characters. When I received the DVD it said they would be glad to answer any questions but when I went to the web page and entered my problem I got nothing that could be of help. I don't doubt that once it is loaded it may be a fine OS but through this ordeal I gained a greater appreciation of how slick the Windows OS versions install.

I use LM 18.1 with Cinnamon DE.
I have used LM since version 16 was released. I have also used Fedora/KDE and Manjaro/MATE.
While Manjaro/MATE seems somewhat faster than LM/Cinnamon, LM seems fast enough for my needs.
Of the 3, LM seems to be the most stable/reliable and easiest to use.
I rarely need to reboot: One of my machines has been running LM for over a year without the need to reboot.
Daily usage consists mainly of internet searches, email, producing documents, printing/scanning and as a music server.
It basically just works out of the gate and makes a great daily workhorse.

I have used Chakra in the resent past and was good with it had to offer. I was pleased how it dealt with GTK with it's system being QT based. It does a crisp clean looking desktop.
I did find though that as time went on it seemed to be slow and lagging with booting-up and basic web surfing. My internet connection is quick and my machine is way more powerful than what it needs to run (an Intel i5 quad core w/8 g's of ram). Not sure why it has this issue? The text seemed small also. For these reason I give it a low 8.2.
If at some point in time Chakra could get back into the flow of things and fix this slowing issue I would definitely give it a go again. It's good.

CentOS is a great distro, be it for Servers or Desktops/Laptops/Workstations. I used it for the last year on all my systems without any issues at all.
The kernel, if it seems old by version number, gets lots of updates from more recent versions. All my hardware was recognized from the start, even on my brand new, 2017 HP ProBook 430 G5. I recommend it for both workstation and server use, without hesitation.

Was always curious about OI as a desktop OS, going back to OpenSolaris days, the open version of, well, Solaris. When Oracle bought Sun Microsystems, in a foolish move, they severed support for OpenSolaris. Enter OpenIndiana (OI) a fork of OpenSolaris.
Installed OI on an old Gatway laptop, though it took some doing and help from the IRC channel on Freenode. When I finally did get OI installed, I was pleasantly surprised that my wifi worked out-of-the-box and the audio playback was fine too (needs LAME to playback MP3's, though). There are multiple software repositories, the main one only has a handful of packages. But there are independent repos where I picked up additional software like VLC Media Player, Filezilla, Inkscape, Audacity, LAME, LibreOffice and so on. While not overflowing wih packages, you can get the bare minimum you need to get-by. I use the laptop for a coding and web-dev-course and it is serving me well thus far.
The OpenIndiana site has some decent documentation, but the IRC suggests you also acquire books on OpenSolaris to better understand this OS. (i.e. The OpenSolaris Bible and Pro OpenSolaris). I agree.
You will need a larger hard drive for this OS because of the way back-ups are partitioned. I was going to use a small SSD drive I had laying around, but opted for a 300G HD, which served me well. After one particular update, I had no GUI to boot into, but someone on the OI IRC taught me how to roll back a version and boot into a stable environ until the bad update got sorted. So I began to better understand the importance of the partition structure.
The gateway laptop is a single core piece of crap with two gigs of RAM and an HDD (as mentioned) and OI is running just fine as a desktop. The community is small, you will have to be patient for answers on the IRC and there is also a mailing list for support too.
I like the OS, the community is small and under-loved and needs more developers and feedback.

- Easy to install
- Fast system boot
- Fast desktop environment
- Very configurable
- Ease of Customization
- Large amount of software available / Easy to install
- MX-Snapshot / Allows you to create ISO's of the Distro from your system installation

Chakra is my normal distro, since leaving Mepis several years ago, mostly because I like KDE. I'm kind of old and set in my ways, and I'm done playing around with my OS. I do use Firefox, Libre Office, Gimp, Digikam and VLC and it's easy enough to replace supplied applications with those. It's reasonably quick on my older hardware and stable as well. My only issue is the small group of maintainers and users means some software is not available. Maybe I should step up the plate and learn to maintain those packages. On the other hand I don't get lost in the forums as I did with larger distros like Ubuntu and Debian. With the vast Arch Wiki available for help I have no trouble with Chakra.

I have been using Solus Budgie V3 for a few weeks on an old, slow Dell laptop.
The good: Starts very fast
Clean interface
Works well. I set up my printer with a few clicks for example.
Even old(ish) hardware runs Solus well.
Stable. I have had no crashes.
Hardware all detected straight out of the box.
The Bad:
Flat default theme is too flat for my taste. (You might like it, and it is much nicer with the "dark" option turned on).
The main menus is poorly laid out with entries for "Sundry" "System Settings" "System Tools" "Universal Access" "Utilities" and "Other" along with "Accessories" all but one of which are not needed.
I am sure this will be tidied up in future releases, as otherwise Solus is a great distro and the Budgie desktop works really well.
Oh yes, there are a bunch of really nice desktop wallpapers installed by default, but no way of running them as a slideshow, which is a shame.

Just complementing a previous review:
The default music player pauses the song when you unplug the earphone, a behavior I've never seen in other systems except the mobile ones. Good.
On the bad side of things, Epiphany doesn't always show websites properly. Some Youtube videos blackout leaving only sound. Some controls on complex pages don't respond properly. But well, Youtube is a shitty website. I don't mind avoiding it.
Also, the default image viewer does not reproduce .GIFs. A bug report is already filed and we'll see if this is implemented in the next release.
Everything else is smooth and functional.

Used mint for over 5 years, have it on 7 pc's for family members as well, & use it for the on-site computer for small charity. I use windows 7 every day at work. LM is fantastic, enables my productivity in many ways, and has allowed me to put computer resources into hands of those who otherwise could not afford them. I couldn't accomplish what I do without it... No issues with book keeping, photo editing, minor video & presentation editing. I have to keep an up-to- date, registered windows 10 disc for hearing aid programming, some Canadian income-tax stuff, and one high-rez scanner. I can't pull it back out of my lap-top fast enough-- when I don't need it at all I'll be getting more accomplished in less time. LM is just so much better if you're out to get stuff done.....

They did a good job with MATE. Lots of detail. Trisquel is really easy to use. It's the Ubuntu of the FSF-approved world. Abrowser is configured for privacy first, and it feels like Tor Browser, except that this is based on Firefox Quantum instead of ESR. At install, full disk encryption is selected by default. The password prompt at boot shows the full lenght of my long password as I type, unlike many other Plymouth themes.
I'm very impressed with the level of detail that was put on this distribution. Last I heard, this is the one Richard Stallman uses, but with LXDE.

-Simple system. Relatively minimal too
-Not the largest but still a good amount of desktop environments to choose from. LXQt is coming in version 10 :D
-Very large amount of software
-It's good ol' Debian
Cons:
-apt has limited functionality compared to, let's say, dnf. At least it has an unused dependency cleaner unlike zypper
-When you do need/want proprietary software it might not be there in the nonfree repos.

I use the system only as a host for my VMs.
Microsoft ended the support of Windows 7 after year 2020. So I searching for an alternative. Of course I get an Ubuntu-based distro. But Meltdown & Spectre changed all rules. I don't liked how slowly the maintainer of my distro works. I use VMware Workstation Pro because I don't like VirtualBox's quality of 3D support. The problem is VMware doesn't support so much host systems.
By the time only Red Hat and SUSE provide a fix of the Meltdown & Spectre problem. I just don't like the level of support of some proprietary things on CentOS/Fedora plus, sorry, but I don't like be a Beta tester with Fedora. Maybe it is very stable, but I think so. So I try OpenSUSE and can say if you wanna a stable secure system. However, I can't say this is easy like Ubuntu.
The system for people who know what to do.
Pros:
- Works very well with Secure Boot, no problems.
- Has the official nVidia repository and drivers.
- Supports QEMU, XEN, VirtualBox, VMware Workstation.
- Has many desktop environments (KDE, Mate, XFCE, etc).
- YAST and Zypper is just amazing for everyone.
- Easy to update and autoupdate (yast2-online-update-configuration).
- Snapshots can help you if something go wrong.
- Helpful manuals about everything on the wiki site.
Cons:
- No default video codecs.
- Not so many apps at all.

Better than ever! Install is easy. Fast to boot, fast to shutdown.
Main gripes revolve around the software center. The update download speed feels slow, the update page gives no information on the status of the downloads/install. And I think closing the software center window cancels update/installs, it shouldn't be that easy to kill stuff I want to keep running; maybe should continue in background or have a pop-up asking are you sure you want to close while downloads are running. I can't select third party downloads to install while something else is downloading.
Otherwise Budgie is great. Everything is super stable, polished, great defaults and smooth out of the box experience.

I've been running MX Linux since a few days after it's release in March-2014.
Distro hopping was a pastime of mine until I installed MX Linux.
I've tried the brown one, the green one, the blue one, yellow, etcétera.
SalineOS was good until the lone developer had to make a living.
Pros: MX Linux is elegant, efficient and fast.
Based on Debian Stable, uses SysV init, Xfce4, some backports
and the MX magic utilities for the lazy amoung us.
The MX-Snapshot tool is something I'd only dreamed about. Set it up the way I want it, then make a snapshot ISO.
Install it somewhere else and it's ready to go.
The USB tools are unique for antiX and MX, in a class by themselves with persistence to provide a distro on USB in your pocket, as you like it.
Cons: Hibernation doesn't work --but hiberation seems to have been designed for Windows and doesn't work in many Linuxes. Suspension works fine or turn it off.
I've also come to the conclusion that the distros I like require the least tweaking to reach my desired look and feel.

The best distro for the family is Linux Mint. Linux Mint is very stable and has a large list of software. Linux Mint also makes it easy for people using Windows.
The update software is also very easy to understand.
I have been using Linux since 1996 starting with Slack Ware 1.x then I switched to Red Hat/Fedora before finding the Best Linux Distribution which is Linux Mint.
I have been using Linux Mint more than 4 years as a primary Operating System.
My other computer has OpenSuse 42.3 KDE

OpenSuse 42.3 KDE is very stable and OK for business. It needs a bigger software list like Ubuntu.
