First OSish was what came default with the Commodore 64. My first full fledged OS was Windows 3.11.
My first Linux distro was Mandrake I think 6.

The first OS I recall using is Windows 7 (yes I’m young), and for Linux, I switched from Windows 11 to Linux Mint, which is what I use in the present day.

First OS: I think it was Windows 98. I have then gone through XP, Vista, 7 and staying at 10 for as long as i can.
First Linux distro: Ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10 don't remember clearly but it certainly was before GNOME 3 and in a VM. From then i have also run Fedora, Debian and most recently Linux Mint and Pop! OS in VMs as well. Maybe one day i finally set up a dual boot...

Of course Ubuntu was my first Linux distribution. I didn't use it for long.

Windows vista

Was the worst

Then xp, 7, 10

Then I saw teachings of Prophet Stallman

Switched to manjaro (too buggy), pop OS (good) finally a fedora user (the penguin guide me)

First OS was DOS, though my parents used a computer with Windows 3.1 on it before we got the dos box.

Excluding Damn Small Linux, first real Linux was Mandrake 9.2 (download edition).

First OS: Win 95 (As a wee lad).
First Linux: early lubuntu and backtrack that I used in college around 08-09.

CaptPretentious ,

The first one my family owned, was Windows 95.

Not sure if the first one I used was Windows 3.x, DOS, or MacOS
