Description

It offers a user-friendly graphical installer and a settings application that allows users to manage displays, window arrangements, keyboard shortcuts, visual themes, software updates, application management, and system recovery options. Users can personalize their desktops with color schemes based on wallpapers, create and share their own themes, oversee native packages as well as Flatpak applications, and switch seamlessly into a Gaming or Console Mode optimized for Steam. Additionally, the distribution supports update snapshots and boot-menu rollback, while also providing dual-boot capabilities and full-disk encryption options during installation. This operating system caters to a range of users, from newcomers to seasoned Linux enthusiasts seeking a versatile and customizable Arch-based desktop experience, making it an appealing choice for anyone looking to tailor their computing environment. Ultimately, Mainstream OS stands out as a flexible platform for users who value both graphical setup and comprehensive administrative tools.

Description

The standard edition comes equipped with a comprehensive array of pre-installed applications suitable for daily tasks and is built on Debian. In contrast, the Core version offers a more streamlined experience, also based on Debian Stable, enabling users to customize their systems or operate effectively on lower-spec devices such as ARM boards. Netrunner incorporates KDE Plasma, optimizing it for maximum speed and responsiveness. To facilitate immediate personalization, Netrunner includes multiple window and desktop themes that users can choose from. Most of the window themes utilize the Aurorae-3 engine of KWin, which provides effects like blur and transparency, even on machines with limited resources, ensuring a visually appealing experience without sacrificing performance. Additionally, this flexibility in design options allows users to tailor their interface according to their preferences and needs.
