I have been distro-hopping quite a lot over the last year, and my previous-last choice was MX Linux XFCE edition, which I like very much, although I had to personalise some applications.
By chance, I came across iDeal OS, which is a respin of MX Linux, and somehow I felt immediately "at home" with it, despite the desktop switch to KDE.
The custom selection of applications is exactly what I need (Emerald edition): everything works fine on both my desktop and my laptop.
So I would like to say thanks to the "respinner"!
Mx Linux with minimal changes, makes an impossible to achieve claim of full privacy and safety plus fully ad free experience. Pushes a paid version. Website is illegal in EU as missing the all important contact information.
The OS works, it is after all the hype is disregarded MX Linux.
Beneath the surface the changes from MX are minimal, there is no forum or Wiki, proper documentation is absent.
My verdict, I will stay with MX. Except for the anonymous dev trying to make quick money I see no point in this OS clone.
