I had never heard of Absolute Linux, but the rest of this article has some interesting musings on lightweight distros that I thought would make for good discussion here.

“Absolute Linux” was a Linux distribution. Clicky bait title.

You can’t just misread something and then claim that makes it clickbait. That term is losing all meaning from overuse. It’s an article about a Linux distro and it has the name of that distro in the title. That’s not clickbait.

Nah they’re fine. A blog post needs a header image. They would never have commissioned some artist for that they would have just thrown the same generic Linux distribution logo or penguins that Linux blogs used ad nauseam before genai. People have been complaining about lame header images forever.

Could’ve used the distro screenshot like they used to.

Honestly, feels more organic that way.
