I haven't tried it myself yet but I might give it a spin since it has a unique Desktop environment.

It seems like an independent distro utilizing the apt package manager and porting some Ubuntu packages.

Yeah, probably it just uses the tools like apt that also ubuntu uses. Though there is a Linux Youtuber who said "since the word "ubuntu" appears in the grub config file then it's not an independent distro", and I don't understand his logic, OpenSUSE uses rpms like Fedora but is considered independent. ๐Ÿค”
