Right now top of my list is MX, which I've never tried before. It's Debian- (rather than Ubuntu-) based and has a supported KDE branch (default is XFCE). As it hasn't moved to systemd, without some mods it's downright snap-hostile. MX also seems to make many top-five lists and (though it's a very unreliable stat to me) consistently tops Distrowatch's popularity ranking.
Does anyone here have any experience with MX? - Evan On Tue, May 3, 2022 at 7:29 PM Lennart Sorensen < lsore...@csclub.uwaterloo.ca> wrote: > On Mon, May 02, 2022 at 04:36:34AM -0400, Evan Leibovitch via talk wrote: > > Thanks.
