Entropy Linux
Based on MX-Minimal. Built for experimentation and everyday use.
Entropy is an experimental system for people who like to tinker.
It’s optimized for AMD™ hardware, has a global dark theme, and includes practical built-in tools.
Made by one developer and a few friends, it’s not polished,
it’s a system for learning, experimenting, and making things work.
Why Entropy?
Easy to Use, Built to Explore: Great for Linux newcomers and experienced users alike.
Custom Tools: Practical software to save time and simplify tasks.
AMD™ Optimized: Designed to run smoothly on AMD hardware.
Part of a Bigger Idea: A piece of the growing ecosystem, tying projects together.
Entropy is a work in progress with regular updates and plenty of room for experimentation. It might need some tweaking to fit your flow, but that’s part of the fun.
What to Expect
A practical, solid distro with unique features and lots of room to grow.

I've used Entropy linux since V7.1. (for about a month) not seen any major bug since then. There is only one small problem with support more than two screens, when system is locked an screen is off after waking up one of the screen's is sometimes shut off/disconected or misaranged . Overall nice expirience. All drivers work like charm. Even supports sound blaster sound card.Reply from Entropy Linux

have been using Entropy Linux since V2, which I installed on my work laptop because Win10 was too slow. After installing Linux, the laptop got a new life. Entropy Linux is similar to MX Minimal, but slightly better equipped and has a nicer graphical interface. In version V2, printer drivers, print server and p-mount were missing, which was added in the next version. I'm currently using version V4 where the most bothersome thing is the lack of automatic audio switching to HDMI. This OS handles everyday work well, such as web browsing and video rendering. So far, I managed to ruin the system by having a lot of browser tabs open while rendering the movie, which may be related to the 8GB RAM and not the system itself. You have to install all the programs yourself, it's not like Mint that has built-in office packages XD. A nice addition is the pwr program that manages the sleep or shutdown of the computer on a timer, also a nice program is apprun which stores files with the AppImage extension in the home/username/szmelc/exec/ folder, which allows you to display the list and select quickly after entering apprun in the terminal.Reply from Entropy Linux
