User Reviews

  • I accidentally found out about STAR. I put it on trial. As a result, it remained on the laptop. After Arch-based distributions, STAR is both nostalgic and fun. Thanks for the work.
  • Jun.22: Best distribution ever. Have been using this for years as a basis for a DIY console-as-much-as-possible system using i3. I prefer the amd 64 netinst image. No schnickschnack, just works. Damned fast and stable. Five stars. Thanks so much for your efforts. Jun.23: 1 year later still no netinst. So sad. One of five stars gone.
  • Nice packaging of devuan beowulf and the installer is pretty sophisticated. Main trouble is getting help, so had to knock a star off of Star Linux. :(
  • An exemplary distribution, simple and yet very dependably strong. Low resource consumption. Running Star Xfce & Star Openbox, one on my desktop, and the other on my laptop! Learned of Star on DistroWatch and had put off running a test install to see how well it performed, it did exceptionally well indeed. Keep up the excellent work and thank you!
  • Nice grey theme for image processing and great stability of work
