    I'm sure this is a nice distribution, but I recommend Devuan. It's a solid Debian OS sans systemd, and, with the proprietary Nvidia driver, no problem with sleep/resume.

    Devuan. It's a solid Debian OS sans systemd

    This is the kind of summary I want to see for distro articles. (or e.g. "Linux Mint provides full out-of-the-box multimedia support by including some proprietary software")

    Not "Debian, but with Enlightenment and 2500+ custom packages".
    What do those packages do/change compared to plain Debian, could we please have some screenshots of unique Elive features, and why is it running a 4 year old kernel?

    (If it sounded believable I'd also be very interested in the mechanism used to ensure that "It is impossible that a virus can exist here, due to how the security works internally.")
