I just found out that #decibelLinux AKA #Gentoo Studio exists.

Apparently it's been around for a while. They recommed using #SystemRescueCD to install which is a little funky but, not surprizing in the slightest. lol

Today I spent transferring files off my old #laptop b/c I realized that it wasn't using the ancient dedicated GPU & I messed up installing the drivers like a n00b. So, now I'm going to try out some new OSes. See what I can get installed & run RAID 0.

Other contenders are:
• #AVLinuxMX, #EnlightenmentDE & #MokshaDE versions
• #LMDE which'll make a solid fallback b/c I am most familiar w/ #Debian based distros.

#musicStudio #GNULinux #Ventoy

It's been a long long time since I last heard of #enlightenmentDE
Not sure it is still an active project. In my memories, it was sponsored / used bu Samsung for some devices and still active...

What is you (recent) experience with Enlightenment ?

#enlightenmentDE #linux #foss #desktop #alternatives

I'm disappointed, as a (primarily KDE Plasma) user, that #BudgieDesktop has decided to go with #qt6 over #EFL. What could they bring that #KDEplasma and #LXQt don't already?

There's also: Deepin, UKUI, SailfishOS, Lumina (I liked this one), Trinity DE (used to like it!), others possibly.

#EnlightenmentDE & #MokshaDE are great and they're the only ones -- nearly identical -- that are built upon EFL. It would've been really cool to see/use something quite a bit different built using those famously light foundations. It would add more diversity and perhaps the two smaller projects could provide more for one another in the long run.
