I can try that, do you know of any distro that has it preinstalled? I don’t care too much about what it’s based on but I might prefer a distro that’s similar to Linux Mint.

I’m not really that sort of user, so I have no idea. I use arch and XFCE but have toyed with Budgie and Cinnamon in the past as potential replacements for xfce, and while I liked them, they didn’t… feel right.

Solus was the originator of Budgie, Manjaro used to have a community spin. I’m not sure who’s responsible or pushing it these days, but it is similar in that it’s a gnome3 based, traditional desktop with hardly any outside dependencies outside of itself.

Ok, I can try Solus. As long as the only meaningful difference is the package manager, I should be able to use it.

Also, I didn’t find the Manjaro spin but on Budgie’s official website, there is a list of distros that come with Budgie. So, I can try those if, for some reason, can’t use Solus.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
