DeltaWingDragon,
  • Started on a Windows Vista machine, but I dual-booted Mint on it when it started to run slow.
  • The software broke or got corrupted, so I installed Lubuntu.
  • Lubuntu started to freeze, so I installed Mint again.

The hardware was really outdated at this point, so I got a new machine. Windows 8.1.

Got a different new computer with Windows 10. Started trying out lots of distros of VMs.

  • Switched out the drive and installed… OpenSUSE, I think?
  • Catastrophic system error during an update, left the system corrupted. I installed Debian.
  • Another system error (which may have been caused by me) led me to install FreeBSD.
  • FreeBSD was usable, but not super usable. I installed OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.
  • Catastrophic system error during an update, left the system corrupted. I installed Debian (again).

tldr: Windows Vista -> Mint -> Lubuntu -> Mint again -> Windows 8.1 (new computer) -> Windows 10 (new computer) -> OpenSUSE Leap -> Debian -> FreeBSD -> OpenSUSE Tumbleweed -> Debian again
