I used Omega Linux to revitalize a junk PC, and its noticeably better than Ubuntu

General News

Summary

Omega Linux is an Arch-based, lightweight rolling-release distribution designed for older, lower-powered PCs, using LXDE, systemctl, and the pacman package manager. It ships a minimal set of apps (Firefox, Mousepad, Vim) and intentionally lacks a GUI app store, so you must use the command line for package management. In testing it used under 1% CPU at idle and opened heavyweight apps like LibreOffice and GIMP much faster than a high-end system, delivering notable responsiveness. Omega Linux suits users who want to revive aging hardware and are comfortable with command-line operations, but it may not be ideal for Linux newcomers.
