I love the 'familiar', albeit the somewhat outdated UI ; it feels like home. I run it on a fairly low-spec older generation HP laptop, and installation was rather painless, except that the first attempt failed due to SecureBoot active in the BIOS. Once SecureBoot was disabled, absolutely no problem. I am a photographer and am looking forward to hopefully fully migrate to RAWTHERAPEE in lieu of ADOBE PS and LR, and will likely use KDenLive in lieu of PowerDirector.When necessary, I will use TERMINAL, but I hope not too much... I have failed installing the software for my QNAP NAS, but likely due to not really knowing what to do rather than a fault in the software (I hope...) I will seek 'professional' help in this regard. I do however at this stage see it as complementary to my WIN/11 desktop and laptop. I would strongly recommend KUMANDER for 'novice' users with basic computing needs.

The LIVE system is probably okay for most systems, but it is unfortunately not stable enough and does not support older laptops. When trying LibreOffice Writer in the LIVE environment the system is hanging with a black screen. Did not try the installer, which can only be started from the menu on the initial boot screen. I don't see any advantages over other distros like Mint, which are much more solid. Certainly i would not recommend the Kumander 2.0 version yet. Was this review helpful?

More and more people are leaving Windoze every day looking for familiarity, safety and peace of mind. This particular distro goes a long way in easing the plight of Windoze refugees, and would give them a new, safe, familiar home. This distro has all the requirements that most people need, it could be a winner for sure. Was this review helpful? Yes No See all 12 reader reviews of Kumander Linux...
