btw

What if I’m a graphics’s designer that comes from FreeBSD

Since there are no arrows indicating direction, all paths begin at Arch and end with questioning who you are.

(It took me way too long to understand that "ever used linux before?" didn't have two separate 'no' branches)

It goes to the question "geek?" Which then can be answered as "hobbyist" or "yes", but the half circle makes it weird. That's how I read it, but if you choose hobbyist you indeed get into an argument of "WHAT AM I?"
Edit: oh, the yes and no are UNDER the question if you've used Linux. The No on the left comes from another branch. Pfff, just woke up, now I even see you said exactly that. I need coffee....

What's the original?

- For the record this was made 8 years ago and is pretty out of date.
- Ubuntu and Linux Mint users stuck in an infinite loop in the corner really sells the whole flowchart 😂
+1 for an interest in the original
- Not sure if you saw but someone replied to the above comment with it!

Wait, it's all Arch?

What if I don't have the socks?

All it needs is "Do you have Experience?" after asking if you have a life, and both choices go to Kali Linux

I got lost and now I have Mint.

Thanks!

I installed OpenSuSE!

BTW, I approve of this chart

NixOS?

I switched to it not even three months ago, after two years on arch and I'm not going back. Just as if not more configurable than arch and it's actually harder to bloat with something and then forget about it, since you always have user-readable description of your current system.
- Although, it's possible to bloat it unknowingly: networkmanager, for example, depends on a few VPNs noone would ever need, and one of them depends on webkitgtk, so you actually have to mkForce modules to include only the necessary stuff. Not like that's a huge issue, but I wasn't amused when I saw "building webkitgtk" while cross-compiling 😆

What if I want a usable one.

I hate how good Arch is! It's like the more exciting, younger co-worker constantly seducing me to leave my wife Debian.

Hurd, surely?

GNU Hurd/Guix aka the GNU System
- I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as GNU Hurd, is in fact, GNU-Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU minus Linux.
