Mine was Knoppix because back in the day Libraries used to let you borrow all sorts of computer software and games and that's what they had and I was stuck on dialup lol

mandrake was my first. Good memories

This was mine as well. I then moved on to Mandriva and then Mageia off and on. Mageia 9 has been good. Some of the earlier versions not so much. Thinking of trying OpenMandriva next.
