The latest challenge is Bodhi Linux it is built on the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS but targeting machines with fewer resources. My process for this is to put it in a VM first and then go to “bare metal” for further testing if my initial experience is compelling enough and I have the time. As a part of the Big Daddy Linux Community, there is an optional weekly challenge to try out a Linux distribution. I am a long time openSUSE user and am perfectly content with all that it has to offer, not just as a distribution but as a project in its totality. Some distributions put their own feel while others minimize their modifications.

Some distributions concentrate on user experience or mostly the technical underpinnings. Linux is a fun thing and trying out other distributions can result in a myriad of experiences.
