operating system focused on #anonymity, #privacy and #security.
based on the Tor anonymity network, Debian GNU/Linux and #security-by-isolation.
Whonix consists of two parts: One solely runs Tor and acts as a gateway, which is called Whonix-Gateway. The other, which is called Whonix-Workstation, is on a completely isolated network.

SolydX and SolydK are Debian-based distributions with the Xfce and KDE desktops respectively.
...
started as an unofficial variant of Linux Mint's "Debian" edition with KDE as the default desktop, but it was later given its own identity as SolydK. SolydX was added after Linux Mint dropped its Debian-based flavour that used the Xfce desktop.
Comes with PlayOnLinux preinstalled.
Note: I had the Xfce version installed on an old machine perhaps 3 or 4 years ago. I can confirm it's solid. :)

a GNU/Linux distribution based on Slackware that is simple, fast and easy to use, with stability being a primary goal. Salix is also fully backwards compatible with Slackware...

FreedomBox is a #private-server for #non-experts: it lets you install and configure server applications with only a few clicks. It runs on cheap hardware of your choice, uses your internet connection and power, and is under your control.
Plain and clear.
You may use it to install your own instance of mastodon*, for example.Try this at home. :) ;)
Also Diasp, I suppose. The gurus here confirm this?

independent GNU/Linux distribution project which was created from scratch with the intention of providing a reliable operating system with maximum respect for the user by including entirely free software
It has a very simple packaging system that allows installing, removing, upgrading and creating packages. Dragora can be an ideal distribution for those who wish to learn how a distribution works on the inside. DistroWatch.com: Dragora GNU/Linux-Libre

features desktop packages optimized for maximum performance with the latest LTO and x86-64-v3 optimization techniques, as well as improved security and performance enhancements.
utilizes the advanced BORE Scheduler for enhanced performance, and offers a variety of scheduler options including CFS, PDS, BMQ, and TT. All kernels are compiled with optimized x86-64-v3, x86-64-v4 instructions
default browser, Cachy-Browser, is a fork of the well-known Firefox with added security features and optimized performance. Patches from the librewolf browser are also incorporated
I haven't tried it, but it looks like a solid-rock, bullet-proof distro.
If you decide to try it, please give us some feed-back. :)

9.8/10 average rating on distrowatch.
Not the best distro for newbies, definitely one of the best for #Linux-addicts.
They came a long way since the original Crunchbang.

If you're a #retro-gamer...
Batocera.linux is an open-source and completely free #retro-gaming distribution that can be copied to a USB stick or an SD card with the aim of turning any computer/nano computer into a gaming #console during a game or permanently. Batocera.linux does not require any modification on your computer.
"NixOS: The hype is real!"
NixOS is a Linux distribution that has its own package manager and with it, its own programming language. The entire system configuration is in one configuration file. You edit the configuration file, and the system adds and removes apps all by itself. You can copy the file to another computer and replicate the entire system from just that configuration file.
It does this with a human-readable file and "functional" package manger that handles packages in a fully isolated manner. It has the largest repository of any Linux with over 80,000 packages. Packages declare exactly which versions of dependencies they use, and the Nix package manager will guarantee the different versions will be isolated.
Updates are atomic, meaning the updates are done entirely or not at all. The old system is kept and you can always switch back to it. NixOS never breaks because you can always roll back to a working system.
NixOS doesn't sacrifice performance and makes all the Linux desktop environments available.
That's what's in the video. Now my own commentary. NixOS has been around for 20 years, but it may just now be reaching the "critical mass" of functionality and users for it to break out. I suspect it may break out slowly. Like the people in the Jupiter Broadcasting podcast (link below) say, maybe it 10 years most Linux users will be using NixOS, but the transition will probably be gradual. I'm going to try it out.
I put the word "functional" in quotes above on purpose. In regular english, "functional" just means something works as intended. But in computer science, the word "functional" has a very particular meaning. Think "math functions" like you learned in calculus class. In computer science, a functional programming language is a language where functions are treated as deterministic mathematical functions, which take an input and compute an output, and crucially, produce so "side effects" altering data outside the output data. In regular "imperative" languages, the language executes a series of statements which update the program's state.
Nix applies this "functional" concept to package management. They've made a "purely functional package manager." This means that it treats packages like values in a purely functional programming language, "pure" meaning it forbids all side effects. Packages, once installed, never change after they have been built. If a different version of a package is needed, it gets built and lives alongside the first one, and likewise can never change. Cryptographic hashes are used to differentiate the versions. All these packages are stored in the "Nix store".
The Nix build process ensures package dependency specifications are complete. The build process can only find resources that have been declared explicitly as dependencies, so if any are missing, the build will fail.
It's definitely a different philosophy from traditional Linux. And may have some pitfalls for those used to regular Linux (see below).
