True story: I did get up to 11 distros recently in a multiboot setup on my Thinkpad. I used Refind for the boot manager and everything worked well.

Got 'em!
but in which distro should you run this?
any loosely posix-following os will work with this.
EDIT: joke went over my head
shared home partition
I use Linux because it gets out of my way and lets me get things done.
To you Linux seems to be the thing that needs to get done…?
I’m not hearing a “no”
No
Thank you, finally!!
goes down to 19 partitions

No?
Debian Testing/Sid.
Yeah?
One question: Why?
Degenerate fucking distro hoppers, why can’t you settle down with TempleOS like a good fucking Christian?
here, you dropped something: /s
I agree with the ball, it would be easier and more convenient to use virtualization, containers or something similar.
“I don’t do it because it’s easy, I do it because I thought it would be easy.”
-OP maybe
Sure! What the hell, throw a couple of BSDs in there too, why not?

yeah, I was thinking about that too. And OpenIndiana as well.
Yes! I missed the heyday of Solaris, so I’ve been sorely tempted to try out OpenIndiana.
Seek help
/help–help, found the Windows guy.
I’ve never actually tried it, but I think you could use BTRFS subvolumes to multiboot without partitioning the physical space.
And then maybe even use deduplication across subvolumes?
That was the exact thing I was going to suggest. It does work!
Just use a virtual machine
22, 1 for /home and 1 /home for that one odd distro that does things vastly different.
She’s hella cute ☺️
also you forgot Debian
and bazzite or other atomic fedoodoo
If I don’t have 1tb of wiggle room the system is entirely useless to me
For the little distro hopper in your family!
Whole disk LVM2 logical volume with a thin pool. Now you can have as many “partitions” as you like. Enable vdo deduplication and save even more space.
