Linux Desktop: Why Spiral Linux is interesting for Debian/Ubuntu users
www.youtube.com
Do you already know Spiral Linux? A Debian fork that wants to differentiate itself from Debian itself with improvements in certain areas and thus convince us...

https://spirallinux.github.io/

BTRFS, GUI Flatpak manager, Theming, nonfree codecs etc., printer support, timeshift preconfigured

Their goal is to make vanilla debian usable, with only debian tech. It is just a config, no “small distro dies and users need to switch”

Might not be the most secure (loose printer configs, preinstalled drivers for random stuff that is not normally a problem)

    Hey, thanks! I’ll spin up a VM tonight. Debian has always been appealing for its stable base, but I tried pure Debian, and it was not much fun to set up.
