It looks amazing and is very light revived my old laptop, the only problem I have is that there is no checksum to verify if my download is corrupt or not

Looks very interesting but it boots up in Russian with a button marked 'en', clicking this brings up a Russian flag, clicking again brings up a US flag but the actual langue on the display never varies from Russian with the odd word in English. A pity as I'd liked to have a play with it! Electron.

I am convinced that DESERT OS Linux has the most beautiful design among operating systems that use XFCE. However, even if Japanese is selected as the language during installation and the interface can be displayed in Japanese, Japanese keyboard input does not work by default. This is very disappointing, and I sincerely hope that this will be improved. 【Update】 Thank you for checking my review! I will continue to support the development of DESERT OS Linux from Japan in the Far East, as it successfully combines lightweight performance with a cool design. I’m also changing my rating to ★5 in anticipation of future updates👍

Hello! Thank you very much for your feedback. In the next version, we'll add input for Japanese and other Asian characters using fcitx5-mozc.
