@uri_herrera thanks Uri for letting me know @Nitrux_NX distro at Mastodon!
@ademalsasa @uri_herrera @Nitrux_NX also missing Pop_OS
@LPS @ademalsasa @uri_herrera @Nitrux_NX afaik Pop_OS has not Mastodon account. At least not according to their homepage.
@lioh @ademalsasa @uri_herrera @Nitrux_NX yes, that what I meant. They should be here:(
@LPS you really got my point right, LPS. Hope Pop_OS will join Mastodon soon. Thanks.
@ademalsasa And KDE Neon?
@LETRA I have no information regarding KDE neon yet. Have you?
@ademalsasa Hi, I don't have it, but I mentioned it because I think the official distribution of the second most used desktop environment in GNU/Linux deserved to be named before several others that appeared in your message.
@ademalsasa Anyway, it is surprising that many applications and Linux systems do not have or do not publish on their webpages their federative accounts but they do with Facebook or Twitter accounts. This is an attitude that is not very careful with the free ecosystem.
@LETRA to this concern, yes, that is why I take my time to make this post. Thank you, you helped me spread this awareness.
@ademalsasa @ubuntu @ubuntumate @Kubuntu @xubuntu @lubuntu @ubuntustudio @linuxmint @debian @opensuse @purism @guix @manjarolinux @OpenMandriva @elementary @mxlinux @claudiom maybe, I need new glasses, but I don‘t see Arch in your list.
I found it here: @archlinux, is it official?
@Photor thank you very much. I followed @archlinux immediately.
@ademalsasa this may be a dumb question but what does it mean for a distro to be on mastodon? Like an official acount?
@tuh thanks for your concern. It is just as my post says, at the moment I just want availability of them here regardless it is official or not. I wish by seeing this active post they will be interested to join Mastodon.
@ademalsasa Note than @debian is not an official account.
@kewball amazing, apparently @VoidLinux is on Mastodon .Thank you.
Sadly most of them are unoffical, bots or not maintained. :-(
@GeorgLehmann I am aware of that and I wish that changes when the real ones joined.
@ademalsasa @ubuntu @ubuntumate @Kubuntu @xubuntu @lubuntu @ubuntustudio @linuxmint @debian @opensuse @purism@librem.one @guix @manjarolinux @OpenMandriva @elementary @mxlinux
What does it mean that a distro is "on Mastodon"?
@Ahuka hello Ahuka, it is just as my post displays, the availability of them at Mastodon, regardless they are official or not. I wish more GNU/Linux distros join Mastodon soon.
@ademalsasa What does "join" mean here? I'm still very unclear on this. Does it mean having a client available?
@Ahuka like the post portrays, it means they have official accounts here, Ahuka.
@KuyKuy_Katrun apparently, there is @SolusProject@mastodon.cloud official account. I am glad I found that.
@ademalsasa @SolusProject 👍 👍 👍
@ademalsasa
This is my project, Caprice Linux.
@capricelinux_fa
@haghiri75 wow, thanks, I am glad to see this!
@chuculate to my understanding, because Fediverse is still new.
@princessgentoo thanks, I cannot find any information about this on gentoo.org, however.
@princessgentoo this is beautiful. Thanks for sharing this to me. Difficult to me to find it by myself.
@princessgentoo thanks, I do not use Gentoo and never used it before. @gentoo
@ademalsasa @ArchLabsLinux Archlabs
@turbovomit thanks, however I also cannot find informatin about this on the official website.
Pop!_OS is easily my favorite distribution so far. It has the least bloatware and very obviously the most streamlined interface for developers.
@CaptainJinglePants thank you, I haven't tried Pop so this is news to me.
@ademalsasa devuan?
@fatuus I wish they are here at Mastodon.
@ademalsasa @ubuntu @ubuntumate @Kubuntu @xubuntu @lubuntu @ubuntustudio @linuxmint @debian @opensuse @purism @guix @manjarolinux @OpenMandriva @elementary @mxlinux
Not a distro but @PINE64 is worth.mentioning
@ademalsasa
Do not forget news@calculate.social for #calculatelinux 😉😘
@ubuntu @ubuntumate @Kubuntu @xubuntu @lubuntu @ubuntustudio @linuxmint @debian @opensuse @purism @guix @manjarolinux @OpenMandriva @elementary @mxlinux
@southking thanks. I wish the best.
@ademalsasa
I wish for a arch btw...
@fuyuhikodate same here, thanks.
@DragonLich thanks, I joined immediately. I wish somebody capable take care the inactive one.
@sesivany Do you know why there is no official channel for Fedora on Mastodon?
@ademalsasa @Nitrux_NX
