Yggdrasil was the first company to create a live CD Linux distribution.[1] Yggdrasil Linux described itself as a “Plug-and-Play” Linux distribution, automatically configuring itself for the hardware.
This alpha release contained the 0.98.1 version of the Linux kernel, the v11r5 version of the X Window System supporting up to 1024x768 with 256 colours, various GNU utilities such as their C/C++ compiler, the GNU Debugger, bison, flex, and make, TeX, groff, Ghostscript, the elvis and Emacs editors, and various other software.
wikipedia puts it at 92, which is older than slackware, so certified fucking old. seems like they couldn’t get their shit properly together any time before debian released a stable release in 96 though so it’s ded
@MercurialBlack @usernameswift @Centaur now?
A community effort in continuing the development of Yggdrasil has been started in early 2022, having an alpha release planned to be on late March or early April 2022.[12]
@usernameswift @Centaur @MercurialBlack seems like it’s just one indonesian person deciding they should revive the oldest distro in existance but not using the code or anything at all since it’s too old so it’s basically just appropriating the name
shitty thing to do. you don’t need a name to make it big in the linux underground. look to venom linux: the name sucks, the only way to get support for this thing is a middle eastern telegram channel and people still use it https://github.com/venomlinux/ports/commits/repos
@Jojothegoodperson @meso @usernameswift @Centaur @menherahair @MercurialBlack The only one I know of is Disroot.

@Jojothegoodperson @meso @usernameswift @Centaur @menherahair @MercurialBlack Their TOS is pretty restrictive. I only use it for XMPP which I rarely even use.
@Jojothegoodperson @meso @usernameswift @Centaur @menherahair @MercurialBlack I was forced to use Discord for something a few years ago. I only ever used the web client. I haven't touched it since.
@Jojothegoodperson @meso @usernameswift @Centaur @menherahair @MercurialBlack That doesn't surprise me. Like I said, I haven't even touched it since graduating college. I never even used voice chat on it.
