I did imagine that you also had offered a distro with TDE, or maybe it
was just your connection with MX and TDE.
Just interfacing with the MX devs to build an ‘easy’ TDE install method for
MX. I did try Devuan ~2 years ago, but the lead (only?) dev they have and
I had a complete disagreement over what constitutes ‘customer
service’ / ‘helping newbies’ so I left. Anyone that’s been on this list
more than 6 months can figure out my views, his view was about polar
opposite. Hopefully he’s changed his mindset, the Linux ecosystem does need
more non-systemd choices.
Nothing wrong with Devuan, but you can more easily achieve the same things
with MX and it has a 20x larger dev group and ~1,000x larger user group.
Back to who the other Michael is, I’m somewhat curious why someone who can
and does create a TDE ISO isn’t on this list.
Best,
Michael
Somebody -- I had thought it was yourself -- created a TDE distro, but when I
went looking for it again (to post in a different thread), I couldn't find
it. The link was supplied by Nik, but perhaps he was in error, and I have
passed along the error?
Just to clarify: Somebody named Michael posted a link to an iso, a Devuan-type
distro with TDE; but now I find that it isn't you. I'm pretty sure that Nik
sent the right link, because it allowed me to complete a download that had
been interrupted.
I got both links (Nik's and the Other Michael) originally from the TDE mailing
list. Now I am confused.

There are several distros that offer TDE as a default
choice (Q4OS,
Exegnulinux, and others). Also, both Nik and Michael have created TDE
distros for testing:

As a clarification note, since I don't really see any other Michael's
posting to this list, the Michael Bill is referencing isn’t me.
Best,
Michael
PS: MX is also non-systemd.
