GeckoLinux

Hi everyone, thanks for the very friendly welcome I received over on this thread. So I took their suggestions to introduce myself. Or at least to introduce my username. ;-) I keep a very low online profile just out of general privacy and security concerns. I despise social media and dislike Reddit (although I am active on the latter), and I strongly prefer traditional forums like this one.
I'm the creator/maintainer of GeckoLinux, which is an alternate distribution method of openSUSE with some low-level default configuration changes. Over on the GeckoLinux website there is a brief paragraph about me at least as far as it relates to the project:
I use GeckoLinux on all my personal systems; I used to be a fan of Lenovo Thinkpads and still use one as my daily driver, but I'm rather disenchanted with most of the Thinkpad line and am trying to figure out what my goto brand/series will be from here on out. I use GeckoLinux for all sorts of "real" work in several fields. It meets my needs very well, and I hope it does for others as well. I have successfully switched quite a few new Linux users to it, some of which tried and failed with other distros.
Again, thanks and best wishes to the friendly folks here!

I've used Linux on the desktop since approximately 2001. I have used many versions of openSUSE since the project's inception, and I used SuSE Linux before that. I've always appreciated openSUSE's flexibility and highly innovative infrastructure, but the profusion of "paper cuts" in the default configuration always made me think twice before recommending it to others. This projects sets out to change that.
