Started using Puppy Linux recently.
(Dual boot)
Is it /g/ approved?
How secure is it compared to other distros?

What's the point of using an obscure OS if your wallpaper is the meme game itself?

Why are you bothering? It's for old shit and compute sticks.

Puppy exists solely to be a lightweight distro for ancient computers or low power devices

Just testing it... it runs really fast and I don't use my PC for much other than writing, watching movies, browsing the web and making spreadsheets.
Might be a keeper.
You have a directory called /archive.
Drop stuff in there and it's saved to the usb or cd but isn't loaded to the ramdisk on boot.
Use it to keep the memory footprint low.

I've never heard of anyone using Puppy as a main OS, it has always been a hobbyist curiosity for machines ready for scrap, I guarantee something will come up that Puppy won't be able to handle and you'll abandon it. It has been years since I bothered with it but that's exactly what happened with me.

Fucking nice, thank you for the tip!
Slackware is better as a main machine and will run on anything.
Is puppy linux still the best os to run directly off a flash drive?
>>57859970
i kinda wanna run it because the name is adogable

I'd go for Kali because it supports LUKS encryption of persistent storage

I have it on my flash drive, it's just for recovery I ever fuck up or if I need to access someone's hdd.
It's hard to think of it as a main OS
