  1. 🎉🚀 GoboLinux: because what the world really needed was a five-year hiatus resulting in a bugfix #update that almost nobody noticed. Apparently, passing the torch means finding someone else to explain why your file hierarchy is a bad idea. 🔥📁

  2. OMG. #GoboLinux is so beta. I love the different package install idea but 1) there is currently no binary package repo 2) running "Compile packagename" fails almost all the time with errors.

  3. 「 GoboLinux, the Linux distribution featuring a rethought file system structure. GoboLinux was created out of a desire to try new approaches in the Linux distribution design space 」

  4. #GoboLinux – der etwas andere Ansatz

    #GoboLinux gehört mit seinen 23 Jahren zu den Urgesteinen der #Linux-Distributionen und ist trotzdem nur einem kleinen Kreis von experimentierfreudigen Anwendern bekannt. Das liegt vermutlich daran, dass GoboLinux den seit 1993 von den meisten Distributionen genutzten Filesystem Hierarchy Standard #(FHS ) neu gedacht hat.

  5. 🚨 GoboLinux 017.01 - Passing the Torch 🔥

    We're excited to release GoboLinux 017.01, a bug-fix update! We also announce the transition of leadership—Hisham Muhammad, founder for 25 years, steps down, with @fyrak1s taking the reins. Huge thanks to Hisham, Lucas Correia Villa Real (aka paranoidd), and all our contributors!

    I wonder whether the applications like Firefox are not exactly the best candidates for giving up and using #Flatpak only. Although, perhaps #GoboLinux is exactly the distro, which doesn’t want to use Flatpaks?

  7. “Instead of having parts of a program thrown at /usr/bin, other parts at /etc and yet more parts thrown at /usr/share/something/or/another, each program gets its own directory tree…”

    Oh, that’s cool! … The last release was 4 years ago?! Gawdemmit.

  8. @housepanther @Linux_Is_Best @torvalds BSD is a more unified world. FHS is a barely maintained standard, some distros like #NixOS or #Gobolinux even not to obey this standard by design

  9. #kisslinux is the most sensible distro I've encountered so far. Deep respect. #oasislinux comes close. My own upcoming distro will be standing on the shoulders of these giants and then add some #gobolinux ideas.

  10. #GoboLinux Is a #Linux Distro Unlike Any Other

    Neat... 🥺. First time I hear about this 💎.

  11. @jk supposedly yes — I don't recommend it for running a server, obviously. but for a user machine the attack vector is essentially the browser. plus, using a crazy non-standard distro like #GoboLinux means the script-kiddie stuff probably doesn't even work out of the box (granted, that latter point is sort of security by obscurity)
