Re: Distrowatch Reply #2 – 15 May 2023, 04:23:29 People looking for a good GNU/Linux distribution without systemd, don't necessarily go to Distrowatch.These searches will therefore not be counted (ranked) on Distrowtach.Moreover, a "rolling release" distribution does not need to release a new iso every six months.The name of such a distribution will therefore very rarely appear on Distrowatch (and therefore in the eyes of the general public). 1 Likes
Re: Distrowatch Reply #3 – 26 May 2023, 15:12:09 I'm OK with this. Distros fall apart when they become too popular and wieldy to maintain. In my opinion, it's better to be a part of a smaller/niche community where there's less drama and demands. 1 Likes

When an innkeeper served good wine, it was not necessary to indicate it on a sign, everyone ended up knowing about it. 6 Likes
