• It was a great thread. Bottom line is, use what you like, no shame in doing so. Even if it isn't Linux we hope you enjoy and find some value in what we are doing here.

On "Where does the non-distro history go next?"

• Johnny, one of our fantastic patrons, gave a thumbs up to our mention of desktop environments and how often these histories would come out.
• He said "Hi, I vote for quality over quantity. I also vote for Leo's favorite, the history of XFCE! :D"
