Table Notes and Explanations

(Please refer to the table below.)
  • Select view:
  • To compare the software in this project to the software available in other distributions, please see our Compare Packages page.
  • Notes: In case where multiple versions of a package are shipped with a distribution, only the default version appears in the table. For indication about the GNOME version, please check the "nautilus" and "gnome-shell" packages. The Apache web server is listed as "httpd" and the Linux kernel is listed as "linux". The KDE desktop is represented by the "plasma-desktop" package and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.
  • Colour scheme: green text = latest stable version, red text = development or beta version. The function determining beta versions is not 100% reliable due to a wide variety of versioning schemes.

 This is one of the most revolutionary distros for years!
Great work done by developers and it will be only better and better :)
KDE works like a charm, everything is so fast, yet so stable and secure. Mix of packages from Ubuntu, Fedora and Arch is like Linux user dream.

My PC
I5 10210u
16GB of RAM DDR4
256 NVme SSD

Can't wait for new releases. As for now everything works like a boss. I was not a fan of immutable distros but BlendOS made me change my opinion. I like it,and with a few scripts I can customize it how I want because KDE is on board

 This is very cool immutable and blending, even android apps work fine!

I hope they keep on working on this and updating and fine tuning, yay works too after installing, even without container, I like the arch base :-)

I wish the developers good luck en good fortune and hope they have time to work on this fine distribution, it seems to work with overlays for the immutable part, some more explanation would be fine ;-)

They say you can also build your own DE .iso, I could not find that yet, but l will keep on looking

 Giving it a 5 for potential, lost 5 because it was clearly poorly tested out the door, some bugs are glaring and could've been caught with some closed early testing. The pieces are all there BUT only the base OS works. As of just this writing here's what works
-Installer
-base OS
-Containers for Fedora/Ubuntu, etc
-Updating OS (with caveats, immutability needs to be disabled as there's a bug currently).

What doesn't:
-System Update option should be available rather than updating through CLI. Better clarity in what is being updated (system or containers?).
-Android stuff
-Web Store
-Immutablity (requires removing blend from mkinitcpio.conf for now to update)
-I'm sure there's more I missed blendos github will have more

The lack of BlendOS documentation and using Telegram as a support forum makes this not a good option for a community. Forums work as they create an archivable living document of issues and resolutions over time. While the Arch, Ubuntu and Fedora bits have lots of support, that helps somewhat but there needs to be some links on the main site to any issues that a user can resolve. BUT BlendOS is a BLEND of various OSes and thus needs some more specialized support. I think it requires lots more polish before I'd call it usable as a daily driver. BUT it's got REALLY solid potential as an OS. I'm definitely keeping an eye on it as it improves. That it uses KDE Plasma for me personally is a nice touch as I like KDE over Gnome, an nice plus would be to add more DEs or a tool that scripts installs for other installs.

While I can fix most Linux problems on my own, it's nicer to have a "just works" OS (of which there are quite a few already). Again the 5 stars are because I feel like this OS came out WAYY too early before many of the features were properly baked, the lack of proper documentation and a lack of a forum. Discord and Telegram are great for chats and hot takes, not for proper support. Lots of good info plus repetitive questions which could be linked in a forum post instead (even if people still ask the same questions).

A good Linux distro IMHO requires a solid but WIP distro that's at least potentially usable as a 1.0 daily driver (BlendOS is in 2.0) AND a solid community infrastructure for support which has been the success model for other more well known distros. The potential is here given the creator of the Distro, Rudra Saraswat has created a number of amazing tools for Ubuntu and even Ubuntu Unity. I truly look forward to seeing this distro progress to the point it's my daily driver.
