I had never heard of Absolute Linux, but the rest of this article has some interesting musings on lightweight distros that I thought would make for good discussion here.

    Linux distros that don't exist, but we wish did

          Nah they’re fine. A blog post needs a header image. They would never have commissioned some artist for that they would have just thrown the same generic Linux distribution logo or penguins that Linux blogs used ad nauseam before genai. People have been complaining about lame header images forever.

              Could’ve used the distro screenshot like they used to.

            “Absolute Linux” was a Linux distribution. Clicky bait title.

              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.

              Rules

              • Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
              • No misinformation
              • No NSFW content
              • No hate speech, bigotry, etc
