I have been looking around and found a few new Distros which I plan to test and perhaps use. These are all Arch based.

Exodia (dwm, bspwm) Arch Distro:

CachyOS (gnome, kde) Arch Distro:

XeroLinux (Stable base Arch):

I wonder why you list the window managers/desktop environments separately. One would think that all Arch-based distributions (“distros”) support most window managers anyway?

@tux0r I list them, so I know which distros emphasize which window Managers/Desktop
Environments. Generally distros provide excellent clues to learn from... As for sameness, it is difficult to achieve design & implementation objectives if you don't know how someone created a particular setup. New tools and tricks appear all the time.

und so geht es...oder?

I personally write-up what I learn and share it. Not everyone does that, though. I can assure you, it's Free and worth every penny. Seriously though, you are free to wander my writings to check the details and understand more of what I do with what I discover, assuming that is of interest.

Distrowatch

Ok its been years since I was last on Distrowatch, but I am surprised today that the top distro on it is called MX Linux, which I have never heard of.

So what is so good about it?

How the times have changed.

@nosherwan I have no idea where DistroWatch gets its numbers from, but it seems extremely biased. Like, there's no way MX is even in the top ten most popular distros

It could be as simple as the website just displaying which distro most people click on, on DistroWatch. So any distro that randomly gets to the top will have a strong tendency to stay there?
