This is debian 11 mate.
Built with debian tools, packages, and currently based on the stable branch (Bullseye). Here I try not to use software from outside of the debian repositories.
For all intents and purposes, this is just debian paired with the mate desktop environment with a lot of hardware support taken care of.
Debian mate doesn't force you into new conformancy. We use the mate desktop environment here; no gnome 4 or unity for anyone. With a start menu and a taskbar, you're good to go.
This is just another decent desktop use operating system, but better. Take a good long stare at my packages (check readme.txt).
