Re: fossapup now on distrowatch
Fossapup64 9.5 is getting nothing but bad reviews on Distrowatch.
https://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resou ... stro=puppy
The reviews are not giving much info to go by.
Hard to say what the problem could be!
Well, one person is trying to use it on a 32bit Intel processor.

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected

Re: fossapup now on distrowatch
Bad rewiews? Only trough 4 comments (on date 22,23 september) this is very little to analyse.

Re: fossapup now on distrowatch
It is dissapointing there is no 32bit release this time around - scpup could have been an official Pup or Dpup so the comment about old computers and 32 bit is relevant - oh well.bigpup wrote: Wed Sep 23, 2020 2:43 am Fossapup64 9.5 is getting nothing but bad reviews on Distrowatch.

Re: fossapup now on distrowatch
The distrowatch linux rankings are interesting now. It's the first time I noticed an archlinux based distro on top (i.e. Manjaro) not only that a lighter weight distro (i.e. MX Linux Is #2) beating the larger more major distros such as ubuntu and debian. Also, puppy is gaining ground and is only one place behind antiX in the last there months. Maybe, more lunux users are starting to see the advantages of lighter weight distros. Even archlinux is often seen as lighterweight than ubuntu and debian (despite having newer libs) and so the fact that Manjaro is on top perhaps also speeks to some linux community backlush against some of the bloat that distros like ubuntu are known for.

I used Manjaro regularly a few years ago and really liked it. However, like many others, they have gone the systemd route which I refuse to follow.
I have recently been evaluating alternative linuxes (what is the plural of linux anyway?). The only ones I have found other than Puppy that I would even remotely consider are "Void" (not at all advisable for newbies) and "pclinuxos". Right now I use BionicPup, but FossaPup shows great promise.
