Through various upgrades and tweaks overtime, it has diverged significantly from TheRA and it's time to rebrand this distro. With suggestions provided by community members, ArkOS was chosen. -

Windows 95 in Electron
Windows 95 in Electron. Runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows
windows95 in Electron is a quirky, nostalgia-driven project that ports a complete emulation of Microsoft Windows 95 into a desktop application that runs on modern operating systems like Windows, macOS, and Linux. It essentially wraps an emulator — preconfigured to boot Windows 95 — inside a user-friendly app built with web technologies so developers and hobbyists can explore the look and feel of that classic OS without needing legacy hardware or complicated setup. Users can interact with familiar UI elements like the Start menu, File Explorer, and retro applications in a sandboxed environment that evokes early personal computing. Beyond being a playful trip down memory lane, the project demonstrates how emulation can be packaged using modern frameworks & how legacy operating systems can be encapsulated as distributable desktop experiences. It’s become an example of how software preservation and creative programming can intersect, inspiring others to bring historic systems to life. -

joborun linux
Like Arch built from ground up with runit
Arch as it was meant to be, simple, fast, secure, cutting edge - without the systemd labyrinth to choke it Utilizing runit (default) init and service supervision - alternatives offered Abiding to Arch goals and principles more than Arch-Linux itself Build from source in the complete absence of systemd and libraries using eudev, consolekit2, seatd, libudev-zero and other alternatives. Maintaining as much compatibility to pacman/Arch-Linux based packages as possible, so you have a wide variety of software to choose from (Arch, AUR, Obarun etc.) Graphic environment support for X11 OpenBox and JWM and in wayland labwc the true Openbox equivalent (see screenshot) For veteran sys-admins who appreciate building from source in as lean an environment as possible! Equally friendly to students of the art of building from source, and a great base to move on and contribute to FOSS -
