i use nyarch btw

Came here to say that. If you actually plan to daily a meme distro Nyarch is probably your best bet imo!
-
Lol never seen this before.
-
I use archbtw btw
-
I use Rebecca black os btw
-
-
No. Let me know if there's anything else.
-
How about Crunchbang or Linspire?
-
crunchbangplusplus and bunsenlabs exist as successors-in-spirit to crunchbang!
-
Very infrequently and no, respectively.
-
-
i'm giving mint a try any day now
-
-
It's canonical (to me alone) that the HML is the basis for LCARS in the Star Trek universe.
-
It is now for me too :).
-
-
It hasn't been updated in years.
-
It's probably pretty out of date maybe you should pick something better maintained as a beginner like LFS
-
If you're not using HML you don't even deserve to breathe.
-
Nah. JBL is where it’s at
-
You mean Beabian?
-

-
Yeah I mean it's just a themed Kubuntu, right?
- Ubuntu is pretty stable, but the latest is pretty up-to-date atm. It's also well supported and well understood by the wider linux community
- KDE is a solid choice as it will be familiar to Windows users (afterall, Windows 11's GUI was based on Plasma)
- The novelty of using a Hannah Montana themed linux distro is fun
It's a fine beginner distro
-

Would you say it's the best of both worlds?
-
It's KDE 4.2 though.
-
I always wanted to know if Miley ever used this.
-
The only footage of Miley checking if anyone talk about Hannah Montana Linux /j
-
I think Hannah used it, but I don't know if Miley did
-
At least, never at the same time.
-
-
If you try and log in with the user name "Miley" it should give you secret root access.
-
-
Yes but you have to play the theme song while installing.
-
Low key this might be one of the more serious distros. Mad respect from a long beard.
-

-
The ball and pinball decided it, HML is for me
-
-
I prefer MCL
-
imo this (.world link) is a better choice

Someone tried it this year: https://www.xda-developers.com/i-tried-hannah-montana-linux-in-2025/
TL;DR complete failure. It hasn't been updated in 10 years.
Like a lot of Linux distros, this should have just been a window manager theme and maybe a helper app
Absolutely no sense bringing in stuff like init system and depmod and C compiler version when what you care about is UI theming
Sometimes, just maybe, people do things to see if they can.
One could have guessed from the image in the OP. KDE 4.2 is not exactly a recent piece of software anymore.
If using era-appropriate hardware, I wonder if you could use archived Kubuntu repos to upgrade one at a time until it's a modern Linux kernel.
Damn, Someone should really revive that it's iconic at this point.
Thanks for the link, I was gonna try it lol
People should consider Justin Bieber Linux, at least it isn't that outdated.
