I'm far from OG, unless you count my dad's SUSE that I "used" as a child for a while. I fondly remember SuperTux. But I didn't really interact with the system much beyond starting games or a browser.
Later (about six years ago, I think) I started dual-booting Ubuntu as a side piece for productive stuff while gaming on Windows. Gradually tried gaming on Linux too, then made the jump to Linux (Ubuntu) exclusive late 2021.
Since a recent PC upgrade, I've used an additional disk to try Nobara and am happy with it so far. I've now got a spare disk and more time to try new distros, so I plan to explore the distroverse some more, but all in all I'd consider myself more of a newcomer or at best a resident than an OG.
