Honestly, your Host distro doesn't much matter, everything will be in Docker soon. Here's a quick way to get there

But if you want a non-nonsense just get things done distro, try Crunch Bang

Hello,

I believe librarians are special people. It would be nice if there were an operating system created by us. Haven't come across one though.

Hello,



Every now and then I consider switching my main operating system. I've been using Ubuntu for years. Does anyone know of any Linux distros made by librarians or One that's most used by librarians?
