 For those of you who watch the podcast, you'll know who Josh is Josh is one of our co-hosts on the Linux cast the weekly podcast that we do and He has a problem. He distro hops a lot. So I challenged him to a six month Linux challenge. I told him to choose a distro for six months And I was very kind of sending during that conversation I have to admit and I basically flat out said that I don't believe he can do it He likes distro hopping. There's nothing wrong with it, but I was being you know a douche bag But anyways, I figured what's good for the goose is good for the gander So I decided that I'm going to do a six month Linux challenge Now it's not gonna be as hard for me because I'm not as big of a distro hopper as he is but to spice things up a little bit I asked him to choose or give me a list of distros to choose from where I will spend the next six months on my Daily driver computer actually using it. So he gave me six or seven options I ruled several of them out. I just there's no way I'm going to do them But I've chosen between two and you guys are gonna help me make that choice between those two So the two that I'm going to be choosing from to spend the next six months in our red core and open Sousa micro OS now these are two very interesting distributions one Based on gen two. So that should be entertaining if you guys choose that one the other one is a Immutable operating system based on open Sousa Honestly, if I were to choose one, that's the one that I'd probably choose the gentoo one kind of scares me So I know you mean people out there definitely going to choose the gentoo one But in the comment section below, which would you rather see me do red core OS for six months or micro OS for six months I will leave links to both of the websites for those distros so you can go check them out because they're either one or Distros that are very popular or well known So maybe you need to do some research to inform your vote So that's what I'm going to do and the reason why I'm making a video about it and such a short one is because I'm issuing This is a challenge to everyone who watches this video. I want you to choose a distro. It doesn't matter what distro it is and The only one I should I should say it doesn't matter what distros has to be a different distro than the one that you're currently on So those are you who've been using Ubuntu for the last 20 years and you can't come out to the front of the crowd and just say I win that's not how this works. You have to choose a different distro Find yourself a different distro than the one that you're currently on and use it for the next six months I'm going to create a channel in my discord server that we can chat about this challenge There in that discord server So if you guys are on my discord hop in there and we will have good conversations about our Experiences over the next six months now. Why am I doing this? Well first of all? I was goading Josh Obviously, that's the biggest reason but also I have a tendency to distro hop quite a lot I haven't recently I've been on fedora for eight months or so and Well, I needed a challenge So it seems like a good idea to kind of force myself to use something a little bit unusual for a good long period of time And make a few videos about it So like I said in the videos below choose between Redcore and open Susan micro s. Let me know which one you think I should do I Am thinking that I will very much likely, you know Follow those votes, so I'm not gonna Look at the votes like oh, I don't really like your guys a selection. Just go with the other one I don't think that I'll do that. So if but if it's close, I will be the final judge on it So anyways in the comment section below vote for which one you like see me do and I will install that on my main computer the one that I record and stuff on and I'll spend the next six months there So that's it for this video if you're going to take part in this six months challenge Let me know in the comment section below what distribution you're choosing and we'll have some fun with it So thanks everybody for watching.
