Read a distrowatch review that dropped earlier today discussing the two of them and kind of tears them apart: https://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20250714. I used both a year or so ago and Aeon seemed to perform well enough, but I was pretty disappointed with Kalpa. What are folks experiences with them and how do they compare with something like Fedora Atomic Desktops if you have experience with both?

Appreciate the response! Too bad about Kalpa but hopefully it's managed to gather some contributors and turn things around. Definitely considering giving Aeon another go as well on a laptop or something. I am a GNOME user already and it seems like a solid option for something that just works.
