A user contacted me saying #BashCore ISOs were downloading at near 0 MB/s from his Brave browser.
Same connection, same network… but with wget it downloaded at full speed.
If a download feels stuck, try:
wget -c -t 0 URL
Sometimes it’s not the server, browsers, extensions or routing can get in the way.
#BashCore featured on the Turkish FLOSS portal Get GNU! 😃
They really nailed the philosophy behind the project: privacy through minimalism and "no-branding" to reduce OS fingerprinting 🤟🏻
It's amazing to see my ecosystem growing across borders ✊

OS Purity vs. Browser Reality on #BashCoreGee 🛡️
My Pi-hole test confirms: while the #BashCore OS is dead silent at idle, opening stock #Firefox immediately triggers a flood of tracking requests.
As shown in the image, Google Analytics, DoubleClick, and Tag Manager are instantly blocked by my Pi-gateway. Gee gives you LibreWolf, Tor, and Mullvad for a reason. Don't let a "stock" browser ruin your OS privacy.

Proud to see my ecosystem mentioned by TechRights! 🐧
I love that it’s being noticed by such a "partisan" and uncompromising source.
As a Free Software activist, I believe in taking a stand: it’s all about giving back to the community and defending our digital sovereignty.

Tested BashCoreGee on a privacy box (Raspberry Pi + Pi-hole + Quad9 DNS).
After 20 minutes: zero blocked domains. Only harmless Debian/AppStream traffic observed.
BashCore doesn’t track you. No telemetry, no background noise.
Don’t trust it? Test it yourself.
Cheers.

BashCoreGee just got a major update 😎
Now includes also:
Mullvad Browser
LibreWolf Browser
Transmission
WireGuard
Boot and use instantly. No setup needed.
Want to install it? Just open GNOME Software, search “installer”, install it and follow the guided steps 💪🏻
ISO coming tonight.
Thinking about expanding BashCoreGee 🤔
- Debian installer (GUI)
- Mullvad + LibreWolf browsers
- Transmission for downloads
- WireGuard for real privacy
Still minimal. Still focused. Just even more accessiblle 💪🏻
BashCore just got featured on ITShaman, one of the coolest tech sites in Russia!
Love how they dive into niche Linux projects and give them real visibility.
Seeing BashCore appear there, organically, feels surreal.
International momentum unlocked 🥹
BashCore just got a hands-on review! 😳
Not just a write-up, they actually downloaded, booted and tested the live ISOs, with real screenshots included 🤟🏻
“Six editions, one purpose” captures the idea perfectly.
If you’re into minimal, privacy-focused Linux systems, this is worth a read 👇
