What operating system do you use?
-
I don't have a favorite, though I tend to gravitate towards distros that use APT. Right now, I have Fedora 20 on the main desktop, with about 20 different Linux/BSD distros running as Guest OSs on it, courtesy of VirtualBox.
My only notebook has Linux Deepin 2013 on it, which is a pretty good desktop distro. The 2014 edition is shaping up to be even better. Screenshots here.

@planner Wow, Linux Deepin 2014 does look pretty slick. I had seen the 2013 a couple times while I was surfing the web but never really got interested in it. Is it debian based?

@HolyPhoenix Ubuntu.

Currently all Windows 8.1 (Even Windows Phone 8.1 :O)... I'm keeping my eye out for the latest ElementaryOS release, which will be based on Ubuntu 14.04, to dual boot on my laptop.

Work PC is Windows 7
Work laptop is Windows 7 dual boot with Elementary OS
Home PC is 8.1
Raspberry Pi is openelecI have used Arch Linux a lot in the past, had it as my main distro for a long time but missed gaming so i switched to windows os. I don't miss the regular updating with Arch one bit!
-
My ideal is os x. I use it on my mbp and I find I'm most productive when working on my Mac. On my main PC I run Windows 7 for gaming then reboot to Ubuntu (upgraded to 14.04). I prefer anything with a true command line..
Like @Schamper I am also keeping my eye on ElementaryOS.

I've always been a windows person. Linux scares me

Sissy! Why not just change you name to sissybunny? :wink2:

ahaha
alright the reeeaal reason is that somebody has to test NodeBB on windows, and I've taken the liberty of doing that. taking one for the team and all that
-
@psychobunny yet I have reported quite some Windows specific bugs..

Related to Ubuntu I can only cite:

When the screen is locked with password, if I hold ENTER after some seconds the screen freezes and the lock screen crashes. After that I have the computer fully unlocked.
Sad thing:
This bug affects 3 people
I feel sorry for them ^^

Mavericks OSX

I've tried a bunch of Linux distros, while studying Multi Media Design I had a Macbook, now I'm on Windows 8 (video editing) / Linux Mint and either Linux Mint or Arch Linux on my Laptop. The raspberry PI runs rasbian/debian atm.
I can only recommend a command line workflow for every node or general developer. It's just so much less of a pain on Linux or Mac os, compared to Windows.
