Edited: October 4th 2025 (replacing older strict list)
This list is going to be short and there may be a sublist of distros with a medium strict standard. We shall explain what the object is, below the short list (which we hope the community will assist in making longer as we have not been able to currently review the work of every... 2025 list of “healthy” hardcore distros in alphabetical order with date/activity indicator (xxx) Please keep the recommendations going, for inclusion and exclusion from the list. We can not keep and maintain installations for all of them, we count on you. On It’s FOSS, we regularly test various Linux distributions and share our experience with them.
If you like to know about different distros, do read the reviews. Here are the latest reviews of various Linux distributions. One of the several reasons why people use Linux is its ability to run on old computers. Here we reviewed some Linux distros for old laptops and desktops. Read the reviews and see which Linux distribution is more suited for your needs. There are various Ubuntu flavors available and here we review most of them (if not all) in the 20.04 LTS series.
These Linux distributions have been specially crafted for a specific purpose be it hacking, schooling or gaming. TUXEDO Gemini 17 Gen4 Linux laptop launches with Intel Core i9-14900HX, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, up to 96 GB RAM, and up to 8TB storage. Calibre 8.16 open-source e-book management software is now available for download with various new AI features and several bug fixes. Here’s what’s new! Audacity 3.7.6 open-source digital audio editor and recording software is now available for download with FFmpeg 8 support, Spectrogram Wavelet analysis, and other changes. Here’s what’s new!
Raspberry Pi OS 2025-12-04 is now available for download with the ability to safely eject HDD and NVMe drives connected via USB and other changes. Here’s what’s new! Alpine Linux 3.23 distribution is now available for download with GNOME 49, KDE Plasma 6.5, LXQt 2.3, and Linux kernel 6.18 LTS. Here’s what’s new! Looking for the best Linux distro (distribution) to enhance your desktop or laptop experience? This article will guide you to what, I believe, are the best Linux distros for beginner, experienced, and expert users.
Whether you are a power user or just getting your feet wet, there are indeed specific Linux distros best suited for you. Let’s dive in to discover a distro that resonates with your level of expertise and transforms your computing journey! My current best Linux distro for 2026 is Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. During 2021-2022, my Linux distro of choice was Manjaro i3, while for 2023, I’ve switched to Pop!_OS with Pop Shell. In 2024 and 2025, I remained on Kali without any pentest tools for the rolling release/bleeding-edge benefits on Debian Testing with the added oversight by Kali. For 2026 I have switched to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS + ESM.
(Read details and view screenshots.) The first rule to remember here is that there will be “the best Linux distro for me” but also “the best Linux distro for you.” For years, Windows users frustrated with constant changes, aggressive updates, and growing system bloat have flirted with switching to Linux. But 2025 marks a noticeable shift: a new generation of Linux distributions built specifically for ex-Windows users is gaining real traction. One of the standout examples is Bazzite, a gaming-optimized Fedora-based distro that has quickly become a go-to choice for people abandoning Windows in favor of a cleaner, more customizable experience. Microsoft’s ecosystem has been slowly pushing some users toward the exit.
Hardware requirements for Windows 11 left millions of perfectly functional PCs behind. Ads on the Start menu and in system notifications have frustrated many. And for gamers, launcher problems, forced reboots and background processes that siphon resources have driven a search for alternatives. Linux distributions have benefited from that frustration, especially those that focus on simplicity, performance and gaming readiness. Historically, switching to Linux meant sacrificing game compatibility. But with Valve’s Proton layer and Vulkan-based translation technologies, thousands of Windows games now run flawlessly, sometimes better than on Windows.
Distros targeting former Windows users are leaning into this new reality:
