I tried too many Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, Elementary OS, Linux Mint, Manjaro, Clear Linux OS, Endeavor OS, Fedora, Debian, Deepin, Peppermint os, Pop! OS, Parrot OS, Kali linux, Void Linux, Gentoo, MX Linux, Zorin OS and CentOS. I was a distrohopper! After all those experiments and daily usage of different distros (short for distributions) with different desktop environments and package managers. I come to a point of view.

Cutefish is an Arch-based Linux distribution which focuses on UI / UX. It is almost a Mac OS-clone (a.k.a Mac OS inspired). The desktop has the top bar with a global menu, and the bottom dock. It is Manjaro cutefish. If you want to check this Linux distribution, here is their official website.

ElementaryOS is a modern looking Linux distro. It is built on Ubuntu, a.k.a “based on Ubuntu”. Elementary focus on user experience and developers community. Elementary OS is focusing on the areas of problems which prevent Linux from being the common desktop operating system. Elementary tries to fix this bottleneck. Let’s discuss those things / ideas. Pay-what-you-want AppCenter Creating opensouce applications for Linux is not profitable at all. That’s a problem. Nobody will dedicate time and effort to create a free and opensource software.

I can differentiate it by the brownish color of desktop UI, and the left long panel.

It is very simple. If you chose appcenter (system-wide), the application will be available for all users on the system. But if you chose appcenter, the application you installed will be available for the current user only. This is a good option in Elementary OS. So if you want to install some apps for a user, and not for the other users YOU CAN. The slogan “YOU CAN” is the best slogan for Linux community.

Computers use RAM to store data and run programs and services. So, the data / programs in RAM are temporarily available — as you use the program or data. When you shutdown your computer, RAM will be free. RAM is faster than HDD or SSD in read and write speed. So we use it to hold the currently running programs and data. But they are expensive, so we use less of them and rely on swap file to delegate some less used data / program to it.
