    Nobody has mentioned immutables yet?!

    I finally dipped my toes into trying a new distro over the summer and have been really impressed with Project Bluefin. All the familiarity of Gnome for existing Ubuntu or Debian users but with a completely hands off rolling update experience.

    The main drawbacks are the slight complexity of how the fuck to install stuff on an immutable system. In theory you use Homebrew for CLI apps and flatpak for GUI apps but I’m really not a fan of installing from sources other than the original dev.












  • Honestly, it’s not as important. These projects are working with very limited resources, typically dependent on free labour. Accessibility is incredibly hard to get right and half arsing it isn’t going to work. The priority should be pushing out a reliable, working prototype that people want to use. Once that’s accomplished you can refocus on expanding the features.

    Demand for reliable multi monitor support is going to be far higher than screen reading capabilities.
