    At least for desktops and laptops.

    For servers I’m still primarily running Debian (and one instance I’m running Arch).

    The reason why I settled on Arch is primarily because the combination of bleeding edge and being stable enough for daily driving it. The AUR also adds sooo much, that there is nothing I really don’t need to manually install anymore.

    For servers, I basically want a rock stable system. Hence why I’ve chosen Debian Stable.

    Trying to merge Wine with Linux into one ““convenient”” package was overselling it at best and worst a lie. Back in '08 / '09 I tried to run it, just to see how good (or bad) it was. It was basically Debian with KDE and their special sauce on top to ““easily”” run Windows binaries. Especially in those day, WINE wasn’t as good as it is today. I think you can fill in the rest ;-)
