The new project, called Hannah Montana Linux v26.0, brings back the internet-famous distro as a Debian-based live system with a heavily themed KDE Plasma desktop. Importantly, rather than being built from scratch, it is a nostalgic remaster that simply updates the original joke for today’s Linux desktop.

    What's with everyone's obsession with this mascot? Everyone had it as their goal explosion in Rocket League during a period. I got so sick of it.

    Is it popular because they saturated the market with content or vice versa?

    Well, I just don't respond well to the weeb culture I guess. And I'm not really a macho type guy either. I love Scrubs for example, so stoked to be watching the new series right now.

    But idolizing these hyper-cutsie pixels, I will just never relate to it. I will never relate to idolizing anyone or anything, I think.

    It's not about that, I don't feel any pressure whatsoever. 🙂 I feel very confident in not getting trapped into idolization.

    But I'm also curious what the actual point is in wrapping one's life up into someone else's or something else. To be so void of own purpose or self worth to the point of worshipping someone else like a god. Even something that isn't even real.

    Not saying that all fans of these types of characters are like this, of course, but some are.

    It is silly, unnecessary, and probably not something most people will use every day.

    Well now I'm going to unironically use it as my daily driver.

    Of course, no one should mistake Hannah Montana Linux v26.0 for a mainstream Linux distro meant for production use

    i find this a little insulting

    This would be better as a stand-alone theme imo

    Bah, what I really need to know is: What are the difference between this and Miley Cryus Linux?
