From all of us at #PyreneeLinux we wish everyone a #HappyNewYear and hope everyone stays healthy and reaches their goals!

What are your #NewYearsResolutions / #NewYearsResolutions2022 ?

We hope to have a #Linux #LiveImage with #Calamares available and our goal is by June 29th. But considering nobody in the team has experience with that & the very limited amount of time available, I don't think it is realistic right now. But help is always appreciated, so come joins us! https://gitlab.com/pyrenee-linux/pyrenee-linux

From everyone at #PyreneeLinux we wish you happy holidays & a Merry Christmas! 🎅🧑‍🎄🌲

TBF at @PyreneeLinux I'm putting a fair amount of time into creating the conversion script that changes a base #AlpineLinux install to a #PyreneeLinux desktop experience, but it shows there are a lot of people that are polishing Fedora.

It'll probably be at least a (few) year(s) before #PyreneeLinux will be *this* polished #KeepingItReal 🤘😎

Because #PyreneeLinux is aimed at end-users and we don't want to make too many choices for them, we'll include the #AppOutlet app with snapd & flatpak+flathub preinstalled.

If people have issues with them being installed they will be simple to remove, but for everyone else it'll be much easier to install the apps they want because we've broadened the apps available to them 😏

I know it'll be a duplicate effort in the long run, but at least we'll have *something* to show by the end of the year.

🏁
Our second goal will be creating an .iso with a live environment; first it'll include that install script but later it'll convert to use the #Calamares installer. It is a very modular installer AFAIK, so that'll be perfect for #PyreneeLinux (and far simpler to maintain than that install script presumably 🤞😎)

Inspired by #macOS's #TimeMachine feature to restore single files, one of the more ambitious goals of #PyreneeLinux is to have a more granular #Btrfs setup. This should provide the ability to restore individual folders, instead of the entire /home folder.

Technical possibilities/limitations aside, but the current line of thought is to create @<USER>@Downloads ...@Videos ...@Music etc subvolumes. This should all be automatically set up and hopefully be integrated into the file manager 🤞😬

Here's how we (@garritfra & myself (@RyuKurisu)) came up with the name #PyreneeLinux: initially I was thinking of calling it Kilimanjaro Linux, because "desktop linux" + "tabletop mountain". But in a thread started by Garrit he came with the suggestion Pyrenee Linux, which I quite liked.

Hello everyone, #introductions are in order I presume.

Hi, I'm the social media account of the #PyreneeLinux project. A project that has the aim to provide desktop experiences based on #AlpineLinux. We are just starting out, but our prime focus will be #LuminaDesktop. We think that desktop has the same spirit as Alpine, with its minimal dependencies.

#GNOME & #KDE spins will also be in the works, but only as community effort. This account is run by this guy: @RyuKurisu 🙂👍
