That’s only the 19 with facts and photos. Think of all the other mysterious penguins.

Are you implying the rest only use the Terminal?

god forbid the usage of the terminal for newbies lest thee shall fall into this rabbit hole.

You can go to https://distrowatch.com/ , but some are so abandoned, their status is unknown. Schrödingers distro: You have to try and install it to find out whether it's still a thing.

now i want to fork something into a new distro called "Schroedinger Linux"...

The boot function should have some kind of randomization in it, so it only boots about 50% of the time. Either that, or include a random string in every download of the iso, so that only half of the downloads work.

Did you make the art in your post yourself? It looks cool

Yeah Except for the OS logos that I used for the windows and the bed and the logos on the poster. The poster is is also based on the abbey road photo.

Btw, is Alpine still maintained? I want to finally set up my server but in the last (old) image the installer is broken.

Alpine Linux? Hells yes. Actively. Super small. Does its job extremely well.
