These results seem freaking bizarre and I’m highly skeptical. You’re telling me that Slackware users, freaking SLACKWARE, are the happiest? And Firefox is the least happy? I am so much happier using Firefox than have been with Chrome for at least a decade.
The question wasn’t how happy users are with their distro, but in general. My theory is, people who have a lot of great things going on in their life (wife, kids, social life) don’t bother installing Arch.
As a former slackware aficionado, I’d have to say that the general mood of the users and development team was super chill. Hell, the name slackware comes from “slack”, the goal of the Church of the SubGenius. The whole thing is a meme that’s been going steady for decades.
I had the privilege of meeting Patrick and much of the core Slackware group at the KDE 4.0 release party. They are all awesome.
I can expect that users that tolerate the Slackware style are also those that are pretty laid back to begin with. Probably they were happier people already, and using slackware just vibes with them.

I wonder if people using steam decks know they are running Arch.
I’m not sure if that’ll be good or bad.
And people who have no time install gentoo? Pull the other one :D
Wow, no need to make this personal. /s
You’d be surprised.
