I use elementary OS as well ever since Canonical changed directions and introduced Unity. Itās a solid distribution. Although, itāll be better once they finish their app center in the next release.

Happy Linux Mint user 
. Before, I used Slack,Ubuntu with Gnome/KDE or RedHat/Fedora but i felt that Ubuntu RH/Fedora were not ok and that Mint has taken the game to the next level and I use it ever since.
I ocasionally test other distros for fun and Iām looking forward to what Elementary OS will provide in the future.

Uh new entry here, how do you feel with it?
Iām a Mint user for pc home, i canāt leave easy add of app source, also use Windows at Work.
Pretty cool, itās a good fork of Arch
having a great hardware detection
iād tried Debian Wheezy and Jessie on my Mac before and Debian was just a pain in the ass to install on Mac.
Manjaro have very slick performance and is highly configurable too.
My mom installed it by herself twice.
XFCE is barely heavier than LXDE on RAM.
You could also use the blackarch repositories on Manjaro.
One darkside; the GUI upgrade-manager;
often you need to kill pamac and upgrade over the CLI

ahahah Steven, welcome on this awesome community!
p.s. could you please introduce yourself here?
After many years of being an archer (~7) Iām on F21 since last December when it came out. I must admit I miss the flexibility, minimalism, clean design and overall fat-free approach of Arch Linux but to my surprise I find myself quite comfortable running Fedora. In fact it feels thatās a distro with the focus on sysadmins 
On my home server I run F22 Beta and at work I use CentOS/RHEL on our projects; however by corporate policy my own workstation is an Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Ā¬Ā¬
Both my laptop and my NAS are Btrfs-formatted, LUKS encrypted and SELinux enabled.
My desktop everywhere consists of i3wm-gaps (a fork of i3 to show some space between tiled windows) + i3blocks (splendid status bar extender) + j4-dmenu-desktop (cool dmenu replacement) + quickswitch-i3 (bringās Vim functionality to manage app windows, quite handy) + Compton for some eye candy + tmux (how to live without it) + Fish shell ( itās not POSIX compliant) + Emacs <3 + nm-applet for a handy managing of my VPNs: https://i.imgur.com/0JHMVyf.png
My /etc directory, valuable ~/dot{files,directories} and some of my documents are managed with git + private repos at Bitbucket.
I need to check git-annex in depth when I have some spare time and find a good clipboard manager tooā¦

Please let me know when you find it.
I liked diodon on ubuntu. Iām experimenting with GPaste on Fedora, not bad, but I still canāt grasp it.
Here is a good selection: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Clipboard#List_of_clipboard_managers
I use many different āworkstationsā here for different purposes, but I have a Mac-Pro I do most of my daily work on. I really, really like Linux Mint 17, and itās not so resource intensive that it canāt be installed on older Windows boxes that came with XP or the dreaded Vista. 
For workhorse server machines Ubuntu-server and CentOS are hard to beat.
As I fix computers and do small scale networking for a living, I like to experiment with different flavors of Linux and other OSās.
Reliability-wise, I think my Mac-Pro tops the list. Itās a first generation Intel-based Mac (2006), and I have had almost zero problems with it in the 6 years Iāve owned it. Thanks to a ātime-machineā backup, I was able to restore a failed HDD a couple years ago in less than an hour, and lost none of my data. That was the one and only failure since I purchased the machine. Unfortunately, I canāt upgrade past OSX 10.6.8, since Apple in their infinite wisdom decided to make OSX Lion unavailable for upgrade anymore, and the machine is supposedly too old for anything past that. But, Iāll just keep using it till it wonāt run anymore. It damn sure beats ANY version of Windows by a mileā¦ and I was an avid Windows user until I got this machine. Now I only keep a few Windows boxes around for compatibility sake, for my customers.

Did you know there is a version of Mint Linux for Macā¦ well the Power PCās anyway? I have a MacBook G4 with MintPPC 9.2 on it. I donāt know if theyāre still updating it though. I donāt use that machine too much.
