The "walled garden" highlighted at #wwdc26 is designed to make migration feel impossible. They want your muscle memory trapped.
We solved that. Our repository houses two distinct desktop paradigms:
🪟 #lucentOS for traditional, familiar workflows.
🍏 #fijiOS for fluid, sleek floating layouts.
Same private core, your choice of style.

LinuxMD is #Linux for the #Sega #MegaDrive / #genesis
my #linux UI hot take is that GNOME is actually better for getting people to adopt linux than KDE Plasma, including for those who are familiar with ms windows
if someone is transitioning to an entirely different operating system and user interface, you might think that starting off with something that looks a lot like windows might help, but what it really does is implant an expectation of "oh, things will basically be the same here" that inevitably leads to disappointment and regret when it eventually doesn't
in my opinion, it is healthier to start with something that doesn't look like either windows or macOS, and has its own design ideology, and let the user build up new habits and skills as they figure out that while some things will be familiar enough (such as overall concepts of windows, files and folders, drag and drop), other things are very different (no drive letters, software installable via repositories, perhaps even the command line)
New blog post!
I've only used it for a few weeks, however I've quickly come to ❤️ Void Linux.
I show the choices I make to create an encrypted Root-On-ZFS minimal Linux system with "just enough" to provide a solid foundation to build upon further: whether that be setting up a desktop, laptop, or server.
Happy hacking!

Text read:
The infamous program comment "You are not expected to understand this" occurs on line 2238 of the source code (Lions' Commentary, p. 22) at the end of a comment explaining the process exchange mechanism. It refers to line 325 of the file slp.c.[9] The source code reads:[10][11]
The source code:
/*
* If the new process paused because it was
* swapped out, set the stack level to the last call
* to savu(u_ssav). This means that the return
* which is executed immediately after the call to aretu
* actually returns from the last routine which did
* the savu.
