It’s really great for someone who doesn’t know how to use debain itself and their community are super friendly so do you think it’s worth it’s legacy

It depends on what you want to achieve. MX Linux is one of the less annoying Linux distributions (although I’m more into Void and Slackware, to be honest), but in terms of privacy (which is the very topic of this Lemmy community), it doesn’t do much better or worse than most other Linux distributions.

If it works for you go for it. I don’t hear much about it, and haven’t encountered anyone using it. I know it is one of few Debian based distros that is based on Debian itself and not Ubuntu, that is about all I know about it.

What attracts you to it? What are its selling points and what makes it different from Debian? Do you know anything about the developers.

“New”… anyway, there is a whole bunch of operating systems without systemd. Why Linux?

Yeah the fact that OP calls systemd “new” or even knows what systemd is makes me doubt the authenticity of the original post (or more likely I just misinterpreted the top post).

I read it as an excited new Linux user who “Doesn’t know how to use Debian” and is enthusiastic about MX Linux. But there is no way in hell someone who doesn’t know how to use Debian would have a preference for alternative unit systems and definitely wouldn’t be calling systemd new
