▲ 74 ▼ Could we add "Distrochooser" to the sidebar? (distrochooser.de) submitted 2 years ago by onlinepersona@programming.dev to c/linux@lemmy.ml 55 comments fedilink hide all child comments Quite a few posts about selecting a distro to use. Maybe it's time to make that link a little more prominent?

A distro can offer more than one init system. For instance, Gentoo defaults to OpenRC but offers systemd as an option for users who want it for whatever reason. It isn't on that list. (But I agree that if you know what systemd is and that you don't want it, you're not using Distrochooser. You're not looking up your next distro in Wikipedia, either.) permalink fedilink source parent
