    you think a distribution that automatically includes all the proprietary stuff that we use baked into the distro would be more popular since it makes linux ready to go for most people; but it still gets fewer than 300 clicks per month.

      I feel like the Enlightenment desktop environment isn’t to everyone’s taste. It’s definitely got some idiosyncratic design choices…

        This. People always go “It looks like MacOS” but to me esp the icons just look like outdated Linux Mint/Cinnamon from 15 years ago. If people like ot that’s cool, it’s just not for me.

      Its unpopularity may be related to that it asks money or a positive review in a blog to even try. Used to be so a few years ago.
