I'll start with archlinux.

Xubuntu. It works out of the box which I find important. I used arch a bunch of times but it requires so much work to do simple things.

>>2Kind of why I enjoy it though I learnt a lot from having to do stuff in arch.

>>3True, arch is a very good way to learn. I had it on my school/ work computer but even simple shit like setting up a database server was an immense undertaking. That's why I always end up going back to Ubutntu or Xubuntu. Things just work (and fixing them is just easier).

>>4Mhm. If you don't mind me asking have you tried Kali? I've been wanting to go down that rabbit hole for awhile now

>>5I have an irrational hatred for kali. I haven't tried it. It's just ubuntu gnome with a load of hacker/ script kiddy tools. What part of it appeals to you?

What does any of this have to do with Linux? Linux is the kernel.

Android is best Linux distro because it has more games.

>>1>>10>>11I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
