BunsenLabs was my favorite Linux distro back in the day. For years I've kept some of their old config files, &c.. To use on my own version. But more and more they've become broken as things progress ever onward. I was just wondering if anyone knows what happened with them and if they may have moved on to other similar projects?

So they've had a major release last year in December. And their official website seems to be up. Though, I only had luck connecting to it through Tor 😅. It's still active according to Distrowatch. And, honestly, the reader reviews ain't that bad. I'd say give it a spin and consider reporting back on us 🙂.

You're my damn hero of the day! I haven't checked their site in years! Maybe should've gave it a search before asking... Thank You! I'm definitely gonna try it out! And I'll definitely let the Linux thread know how it's going Again, thank you!

A lot of the discussion and notes on development happens on their forums.

Also, if you're the bleeding-edge kind, you can always try their beta ISOs. They released a beta of their next major version "Boron" only last week: https://sourceforge.net/projects/bunsenlabs-releases/

So it's definitely still under active development.

I was just reading up on that very thing. I may have a chance to try it one evening this week.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
