Is it a good idea to create a new Linux distro in 2026?
What is the goal? Fun, learning, solving a new problem that has not been addressed? I think one has to know why they are doing something before they can rationalize the time and resources they will be spending. What would bring developers and users to this new distribution?
Personally I install Ubuntu wherever I can because it is what I know. I did go through a phase years ago when I would try any Linux distribution but now one would have to do something special to get my attention.
