Thanks, @MichaelTunnell - excellent show as usual. Amongst all of the news, I find TwisterOS most fascinating. Looking at their website gallery, they’ve done an awesome job at resembling the DEs they’ve targeted. I think this speaks volumes for the flexibility of Linux (and XFCE in general, I think, because they’re all based on that). Call me odd but I install multiple DEs because occasionally I just enjoy a little change, so I’d actually love to see this in mainstream distros too!
