What's with the downvotes? What's the controversy with this one?

I would say:

  • An obscure Linux distribution with an incredible title "the best Linux onboarding experience," when we have had Ubuntu, Mint, or a lot other distributions for the past 20 years.
  • "updates and applications," wow!
  • Well, there is nothing else. The article is either empty or it's an advertisement.

I was hoping someone would explain why this distro is bad lol

Im not downvoting, I think its interesting.

...But iI suspect some are tired of the Linux community's fragmentation? As there are a lot of distros that try to mimic Windows as effortlessly as possible.

This looks like a very clean, sleek attempt to me, IMO.
