    What’s the goal? By the blurb I’d guess it’s a minimal server distro.

      From interview: it started as a research project. The author wanted a distribution that uses the least system resources with maximum performance.
      He started with archlinux, moved on to gentoo and to go even deeper - found the infamous “linux from scratch” and started to shape his own distro.

        Cool but… what’s it intended to do? Is it Intended as a daily driver? Something like Damn Small Linux? Or what?

          Half of the linux ecosystem is personal projects.
          Linux itself started as

          just a hobby, won’t be big and professional like gnu

          It’s not useless as you can learn from it.

            The reason Linux is such a big deal is that it was the one of dozens that didn’t fail. This is ignorable.

              By your logic, you cannot dismiss the project for being a personal one. Only if it fails, is it dismissable.

                I can do whatever I want. And odds are very good this is a fly-by-night personal project that goes nowhere.

                  Didn’t say you can’t whatever you want. I said “by your logic”. That was assuming you don’t contradict your own logic, but of course you can otherwise :)

                    Okay - so here’s the thing. You want to play stupid word games you can play stupid word games. There’s a 99% chance I never hear of this stupid project again. It has nothing interesting going for it and is supported by exactly one developer.

                    Sure - lightning may strike twice and this becomes the next “big thing”. But the chance is so remote as to be zero. So yes - it’s a personal project that you can ignore.
