De libertate venit elegantiam | Linux Mint's Slogan

Linux Mint has a great slogan
“From Freedom came Elegance.”

Few other distros bother with slogans. I can think of

  • Debian – “The Universal Operating System”
  • NetBSD – "Of course it runs NetBSD. "
  • FreeBSD – " The Power to Serve"
  • Linux – " choice of gnu generation"
  • OpenSUSE – “Linux for open minds”

Anyone care to add to the list.

Hi Neville, :wave:

not a distro per se but for Linux/BSD in general:

Distrowatch itself comes up with the slogan:

DistroWatch.com - Put the fun back into computing. Use Linux, BSD.

Cheers from Rosika :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi Rosika,
Your own distro has a slogan

  • Linux Lite – “Simple Fast Free”.

it fits the bill dont you think

And my distro has one too

  • Void Linux – “Enter the Void”

Hi Neville, :wave:

thanks for letting me know.

I was just about to ask you “Where did you find it”, because looking at Linux Lite Easy to Use Free Linux Operating System I couldn´t see any slogan at first.

Then I realized there´s an info window which changes in 3 intervals.
It´s only the first iteration of it which actually shows the slogan. :wink:

Introducing Linux Lite. Simple Fast Free.

Many greetings from Rosika :slightly_smiling_face:
