I have a 1TB harddrive on my desktop computer that isn’t doing much of anything, so I’d like to dual-boot something “interesting”. Suggestions are greatly appreciated, so let me know what y’all find intriguing/interesting/frustrating/innovative.
The logo is just for attention, but EFF is a great cause that we should all support.
something interesting you say. source mage linux. https://sourcemage.org/ its more up to date than it seems. look at the repo.
It’s really hard to go wrong with Debian.
That’s my safe answer.
If you share more about your interests, hobbies, I might have other ideas.
I suppose, when in doubt, there’s always Linux From Scratch. It’s a very interesting experience.
Void, stable, fast, not a fork, also is using runit
Qubes - an OS that compartmentalizes system functions (including userspace) into separate VMs, with the intent of keeping them secure from each other. Kind of an internal zero-trust approach. Complicated to use.
Alpine Linux - stripped down to create a reduced attack surface, with the intent to provide only packages which have been vetted for security. Fairly straightforward.
Redox OS - a Unix-like OS written in Rust (not actually Linux). Limited, still kind of a prototype.
Damn Small Linux has been revived with a new version recently, which is nice to see.
HoloISO - a community built reimplementation of the Steam Deck OS.
. . . could you possibly unpresent it? I kid, I kid–this looks insane and I love it. Thank you!
If you have never heard of it before, I recommend checking out the wikipedia page for it, and some of the information available about its creator.
