What’s new: AnduinOS is a new Linux distribution designed to closely mimic the appearance and user experience of Windows 11. It features a themed Gnome desktop with a centered taskbar, a “Start” button, and rounded corners, providing a familiar interface for users transitioning from Windows. The installation process is straightforward, and the system performs well on modest hardware.
Who’s affected
Users looking for a Linux alternative that resembles Windows 11 in both aesthetics and usability may find AnduinOS appealing. However, those reliant on Windows-only applications or specific hardware features may encounter limitations.
What to do
- Evaluate whether AnduinOS meets your needs for daily tasks without requiring Windows-specific applications.
- Consider testing AnduinOS in a dual-boot setup with Windows to assess compatibility with your hardware and software requirements.
- Be aware of potential limitations with certain hardware features and application compatibility.
