From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Devuan - A better installer like Calamares and stop using backports as default on ISO lol it's a pain to use Ceres from there
Siduction - They should use a bit more ISO's giving 2/3 instead of 5 options to make available more ISO's regularly, obsolete ISO that is updated yearly lmao
NixOS
Mostly perfect in my opinion but it'd be nice if when they renamed options they didn't deprecate the old option names so old configs still worked
I'd love yearly Debian releases instead of just every 2 years.
Release Cosmic DE Alpha…can’t wait!
I really haven't given nix the language the time it deserves, but I really want nixosr configuration bindings in Python. Yes it makes me want to vomit but I do kind of live and breathe Python these days. Maybe a python nix generator would be more appropriate, either way it would totally destroy the benefits of using nix
Nix really isn't very difficult, the way you'd use it for a system configuration it's more like a config file than programming
It's mostly stuff like programs.firefox = { enable = true; };
Lol I appreciate your self awareness! That sounds just like the kind of questionable idea that'd be great for a joke GitHub repo, if nothing else.

A robust way to make an install script on arch Linux.
Can we get a free software only version of every distro? That's what I want.
Debian is all free software if you just use the main repo and avoid non-free and non-free-firmware.
I would love to see an ostree-based (immutable) Debian for both stable and unstable.
Aside from that, my nitpicks aren't distro-oriented.
I would make Debian and Arch be deterministic like NixOS, but with a different language and less overhead. I really like the principle but the implementation is subpar.
I still don't know the technical details between zram and zswap but I feel like fedora should switch to zswap and support hibernation out the box
