Guess what Linux distro just had a new release the other day? BunsenLabs.

Helium was based on Debian Stretch. The new release, Lithium, is based on Debian Buster. Big difference.

I discovered the new release when my friend Teal told me he was using BunsenLabs with the Buster repos. I had already rendered the video at the point so I skipped to the part when I'm running an update and... Yep - it's using the Stretch repos. UGH. 😩

On the flip-side, I'm really happy with this video. There's a part near the end where I'm talking about the Radeon R370. I wish I could have shown the physical card in the video but my Egee paw gloves haven't arrived yet. 🐾

Maybe next time!

BunsenLabs Helium Review | Distro Delves S2:Ep43

What kind of Linux distro is BusenLabs? What is the Helium release like? What desktop environment does it use? Distro Delves is a series where I try out various Linux Distros (or other OSes) and give my thoughts about them at the end of the episode. Episodes aren't meant to be comprehensive; they are short informational & opinionated reviews from a desktop user's perspective!
