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.

Hi Redshift isn't maintained anymore and lately redshift-gtk doesnt start anymore (something about a python circular dependancy).

What should we use?

If you use Linux Mint, it has its own redshift implementation in the new release 22.1.

I do too (endeavour os), but I prefer Mint. It just works, and it doesn't break as easily. All my laptops are mint, all my desktops are debian-testing (the most stable rolling release around), and I have one laptop where I play around with other distros for fun.
