Your first distribution
What was the first ever distro you installed and used? For me, it was Mint as I seemed like the closest thing to Windows minus all the forced updates and chappy changes.
Currently on Fedora GNOME now but what about you? What made you choose your first distro diving into the world of Linux?
I wanna hear your thoughts!

Red Hat 5.0, 1998.
Had to get it on a CD as it would have taken 37.5 years to download according to Internet Explorer.
Kernel 2.0.36 represent 🤘
I was RedHat 3 back in 1996. Not even sure how we got the CD but we all passed it around and were amazed.
5.2 for me. I got it as a gift, in a offical retail box. I think the box with manuals is still around somewhere, but I'm not sure where.
