The KDE desktop is represented by the "plasma-desktop" package and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.

Beginners don't need to use terminal, BigLinux comes with the user-friendly interface out of the box. Advanced users will find "under the hood" optimizations that they would otherwise do but are already there. - Theme options available in the control center for those who don't want to configure KDE Plasma a lot - System restore with snapshots using the btrfs file system, easy and fast - Lightweight and fast system with optimizations that come ready for weaker computers (in addition to my main PC with 32GB of RAM, I installed it on a dualcore with 4GB and it works surprisingly well). - Microphone noise reduction - Right click to resize and convert images and videos - Extract text from PDF with OCR easily - Several ready-made webapps in the menu and easy configuration to create your own - Flatpaks and Snaps are not enabled by default, but are ready to go with 1 click I've always used beginner-friendly .deb distros, but I had no problem using this Manjaro derivative... after watching some review videos and realizing that BigLinux is easy.

Atenção aos detalhes, com o botão direito do mouse sobre um arquivo no gestor de arquivos, você pode fazer um monte de coisa, como, converter formatos ou extrair OCR. O Big Linux é rolling release, então é só instalar e ser feliz. [US] I have been a Big Linux user since its first versions. The system simply works.

Everything is at reach of your hands, making it a highly productive option, in addition to presenting an attractive and functional design. A Linux distribution must be intuitive, and the BigLinux meets this criteria masterfully. I was impressed with BigLinux's performance. Even using a modest computer, the distribution runs smoothly. The app store opens quickly, just like browsers and the LibreOffice office suite, which also start up quickly. Furthermore, there are several useful applications for my daily work life. Even though I'm an intermediate user, I can get by on Linux well, and the Available documentation is quite helpful. BigLinux's default environment is simply fantastic, being the best I've ever seen I found.

Uma distribuição Linux deve ser intuitiva, e o BigLinux atende a esse critério com maestria. Fiquei impressionado com o desempenho do BigLinux. Mesmo utilizando um computador modesto, a distribuição roda de maneira fluida. A loja de aplicativos abre rapidamente, assim como os navegadores e a suíte de escritório LibreOffice, que também se inicializam de forma ágil. Além disso, há diversos aplicativos úteis para o meu dia a dia de trabalho. Embora seja um usuário intermediário, consigo me virar bem no Linux, e a documentação disponível é bastante útil. O ambiente padrão do BigLinux é simplesmente fantástico, sendo o melhor que já encontrei. Was this review helpful? Yes No See all 73 reader reviews of BigLinux...
