How interesting that their URL is nearly, but not quite, nixos.org.

You may also find it interesting that someone just re-submitted that to Hacker News.

They refer to themselves and some of their software as NX multiple times. Nitrux OS is the full name of NXOS, just like RedHat Enterprise Linux is for RHEL.

It's also confusingly the name of the OS for Cisco's Nexus line of switches. It's IOS/iOS all over again...

It also sounds like a thin client for NX (https://www.nomachine.com).

Somewhat fraudulent? Purposefully misleading?

I also assume they paid money for that domain, since 4 letter domains tend to be already taken.
