↳ In-reply-to » QOTD: What are some (GNU/|)Linux distributions that think outside the box? I'll start.

There isn’t anything too far out of the ordinary there, but I like the idea of Chimera Linux. It’s a new independent distribution, free of legacy cruft, aiming to create a simple yet practical modern desktop system. Interestingly, it uses Dinit rather than Systemd or OpenRC.

There are also a small handful of what I call “micro-distributions” like Static Linux, KISS Linux, and Oasis Linux which aim to create the simplest possible desktop Linux system while still having a usable package system. Some might (justifiably) call them toy distros, but I think they’re neat.
