    First time I hear of it, always give the same kind of thoughts :

    • damn, yet another distribution, is this really necessary?
    • maybe I need it, probably not, how does it actually work?
    • actually I should make my own distribution at some point, how hard can it be? What would I learn from doing it?

    … then I move on to my day.

      solus has been around for quite a long time, even if you haven’t heard of it

        Hmmm… I wonder if literally the first words of my post could have been a hint. /s

          Also FWIW I’m using Debian (1993) so relatively speaking, it (2015) is quite new.

      It’s actually a pretty fantastic distribution and soothes my FreeBSD-based snobby notions of a clean, organized OS.

        No doubt, apparently seeing the downvotes I came across as negative about the distribution. It wasn’t my point, just sharing my perspective. Thanks for clarifying what makes it actually interesting to you!
