The introduction by the creator:

It's in https://distro.fedesito.me/ , It's a Pokedle inspired game, in which you try to choose the Linux distro based on it's characteristics/features.

If you want to add features/distros feel free to do a pull request, the project is opensource at my ShitHub (link in website).

EDIT: fixed some bugs and added instructions

Y'know what would be neat? A web app that recommends you a linux distro based on your specific needs/preferences

Edit: oh dang someone did it already https://distrochooser.de/

    Hmm.. my distro was the second one recommended to me. First was OpenSUSE. I have yet to try that one, but have tested most of the others it recommended. Guess I need to pop OpenSUSE on my Ventoy stick!

    Finally I can apply my extensive knowledge from distro hopping for the last 3 decades 💪

    { "id": "android", "name": "Android", "paid": false, "initSystem": "init", "releaseType": "Rolling", "parentDistro": "Independent", "packageManager": "pm", "difficulty": "Intermediate", "yearReleased": 2008, "desktopEnvironment": "Mobile UI", "architecture": "ARM, x86", "category": "Mobile", "popularity": "Very High", "discontinued": "No" }

    Why? How the hell does this make sense?

    Was kinda fun but a lot of fields don't make sense for a lot of distros.

    I have seen some fields that are weird but I don't see a problem with the android one? Well I guess calling it rolling isn't quite right but otherwise it's pretty accurate

    Difficulty isn't intermediate. Not rolling. It's also not just arm and x86

    I thought they had dropped most of the other ISAs, have they not? historically it wasn't just those 2 though

    That's a fun idea. Unfortunately I'm too much of a noob to play 😅
