From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
Rules
- Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.

MX > Mint
MX is a traditional derivative Distro afaik, often behind on Updates.
MX is preconfigured Debian with extra tools to help manage the system.
We're living in the age of flatpak and nix. There are plenty of options to install fresh and bleeding edge packages, while still having your system boot every time.
I loved LSD conky lol.
Never could get that to work and now on Wayland the whole concept would need to be rewritten to be a part of the desktop containmenr.
I'm guessing you replied to the wrong person.
Can't you make the same thing in eww and have it work on Wayland?
No, and no idea, probably
