    I haven’t tried ElementaryOS in years. It was always too opinionated for me.

    But glad they are still releasing updated ISO’s.

      Agreed. It’s not for me. But I gotta respect the game. They do a great job making a pretty UI in a world where everything is UI-by-engineer.

        Some years ago (in the early days) I used it as daily driver in the office. My personal device was a MacBook.

        I really enjoyed the highlights and hated the lowlights (UI breaks, and bodged updates).

        Just for fun, I should really re-visit that distro and acknowledge the steady progress.

    Are desktop shortcuts still a no-no with this distro?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
