    In that case, you may have also not yet heard of Parabola.

    Trisquel is based on Ubuntu, Parabola does the same, but on the basis of Arch.

      Props go out to Parabola (CLI edition) for being the first system running on my 64MB 2003 laptop.

    Funny you post this now, because I actually installed Trisquel on my laptop a few days ago. :) And I swear it’s not an ideological claim but it’s genuinely the best, snappiest and most user friendly distribution I have ever used.

    It was the first 100% free/libre distro that I installed. It’s the most user-friendly of all those recommended by the FSF.

    I used Trisquel from 2010 to 2014. It worked well enough for me. I switched to Debian because I wanted more up-to-date packages and Trisquel had switched to an LTS-only release cycle. I still have Trisquel on a server.

    Already installed it twice, love it. It satisfied my ideological purist itch, while being really user-friendly for someone lacking experience in Linux !
