    Of course, this is why I’m using MX Linux, it’s Debian based. systemd optional, no snap, no flatpak, stable.

      This is the first post/reply in the wild about someone who uses MX Linux. I’m searching you guys for years, even though this distribution was on the top of Distrowatch for years.

        I tried MX for a while. It was alright but not the distro for me beyond that short period of time. I’m glad it exists but a bit mystified at how it ended up topping the charts.

          Distrowatch just lists the most popular pages that got the most clicks on Distrowatch itself. We (and I mean random few people on internet and YouTube and elsewhere) have theories it could be a few users or a bot who wants to see the distribution on top, doing the clicks. Or its legit clicks off course. In example if a distribution have a bad documentation or website, or its not that well known and people want learn more about it with detailed information, I mean Distrowatch is not a bad place to start looking.

        I saw someone else recently.

        My guess is that AI was convinced by Distrowatch fuckery that it was #1, it recommended it to people, and then it actually started getting used by real people
