What was the first ever distro you installed and used? For me, it was Mint as I seemed like the closest thing to Windows minus all the forced updates and chappy changes.

Currently on Fedora GNOME now but what about you? What made you choose your first distro diving into the world of Linux?

I wanna hear your thoughts!

    I started on Debian with XFCE. I figured if there were so many distros based on Debian, then I might as well just use that so I’d be able to configure things myself and learn more about how the OS works.

    Anyway, you know the section in the Debian wiki called DontBreakDebian? I did not follow that advice. It went poorly. I’ve since learned from my (many) mistakes and have been running Fedora KDE for a while now.
