Description

Mobian seeks to combine the traditional Debian distribution with the Phone Shell (phosh) project in a way that is compatible with various mobile devices, including the Pinephone. The ultimate goal is to reduce the unique aspects of Mobian by contributing customizations back to the original projects, a process known as "upstreaming." This operating system incorporates Phosh, developed by Purism, and leverages established modern Gnome technologies such as GTK, GSettings, and DBus, all functioning on a wlroots-based Wayland compositor called phoc. Mobian is designed not only for smartphones like the Pinephone but also for tablets such as the Pinetab and the Librem 5, ensuring that its functionality spans multiple devices. As part of this initiative, Mobian strives to strike a careful balance between maintaining necessary customized patches and packages that enhance performance while reducing its dependency on Mobian-specific modifications. This dual approach facilitates a smoother user experience while promoting the integrity of the upstream projects.

Description

Neptune is a desktop-oriented GNU/Linux distribution that is primarily built on Debian Stable ('Buster') but features a more recent kernel and additional drivers. It comes equipped with a sleek KDE Plasma Desktop, emphasizing an attractive multimedia ecosystem that enhances productivity. The system is designed for flexibility and is particularly effective when run from USB sticks, prompting the creation of user-friendly applications such as USB Installer and Persistent Creator, which enable users to save changes on their live USB devices. The Debian repository serves as the fundamental source for updates and new software, while Neptune also includes its own software repository to manage updates for its proprietary applications. Aiming to revive the BeOS vision of a fully supported multimedia operating system, Neptune aspires to appeal to a new generation of users. With a strong emphasis on delivering a polished and intuitive out-of-the-box experience, Neptune boasts a visually appealing interface and a comprehensive suite of multimedia tools, including codecs and Flash player, to ensure users have everything they need for media consumption and creation. This holistic approach ensures that both novice and experienced users can seamlessly navigate and utilize the system.
