A Linux Noob Reviews The MX Linux 18.3 Installer
Overall, installing MX Linux is a piece of cake whether you're doing it on a virtual machine or bare metal. And it's one of the fastest installers I've used.
If I have one complaint, it's simply that the installer itself looks dated. Dull grey color schemes feel like they're from a different era. On the bright side, the contextual help text ensures that even new users won't be left in the dark.
Also, MX Linux has made some refreshing tweaks to the default Xfce desktop environment, making it look more modern out of the gate.
This is actually my first brush with Debian in general, and I'm liking the out-of-box Xfce appearance. Beyond that, MX Linux looks to have a wonderful, centrally-located set of tools and tweaks that I find valuable. I also have no doubt it will feel snappy thanks to Xfce. So, I think my next step will be jumping aboard the MX Linux 19 Beta train and taking it for a proper test drive. Who's with me?
