Peppermint OS is an efficient, lightweight Linux distribution derived from Debian or Devuan, previously based on Lubuntu. Its primary focus is on speed and resource management, ensuring smooth operation even on older hardware. A key feature of Peppermint OS is its Site-Specific Browser (SSB), which facilitates seamless integration with cloud and web applications, minimizing the need for local installations that could consume system resources.
The distribution has historically used a hybrid desktop environment combining elements of LXDE and Xfce, merging LXDE’s session manager with Xfce’s panel and application menu. However, starting in 2022, Peppermint OS transitioned to an exclusively Xfce-based desktop, eliminating the LXDE components for a more uniform user experience.
Peppermint OS prides itself on straightforward system updates and a user-friendly installation process facilitated by Calamares, a flexible and easy-to-use graphical installer. Overall, it’s an excellent choice for users who prioritize performance, web application integration, and simplicity in their Linux distribution.
