A comment on Regolith Linux.

“Regality Linux” is misleading. Perhaps should be called “Regolith Desktop Environment”? It’s not a full distro.

“Regolith is a modern desktop environment designed to let you work faster by reducing unnecessary clutter and ceremony. Built on top of Ubuntu, GNOME, and i3,”

For the upcoming 2.0 release, they are actually planning to rebrand as “Regolith Desktop Environment,” as well as adding Debian support.

Excellent, that was my first question. It looks super nice and if it's well polished I might choose it over my cobbled-together i3 setup, but I don't wanna go from debian back to ubuntu. :P

Technically it is a distro because it is distributed as one - with an installer that installs a modified Ubuntu.
