I'm a Linux power user, and this distro made me rethink what an operating system can be

Also: This Linux distro has one of the smartest security features I've seen (and I've tested dozens) However, that's not to say someone with minimal familiarity with the command line would fail with this distribution.

If, however, you need apps like Chrome, Slack, and Spotify, you might run into some frustration that will send you packing back to Ubuntu, Linux Mint, or Windows.
