What distro(s) do you use?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Recently switched from Gentoo to NixOS. Not really sure if I will not switch back but so far interesting experience. Being able to define your entire system configuration with just a few files is really cool, plus it is really nice for setting up development environments.
On my Laptop I just run arch because I find it easiest, and it is mostly multimedia laptop. Same with my home server (NAS, self-hosted stuff, VR) where I just need rolling distro with good support for gaming.
