Happy Labor Day friends!

It should really be an international holiday for everyone, as we all get up every day and do some kind of labor.

I especially appreciate the labor of all the fine people who create Devuan, simply the best distro i've ever used, and also all the people on this forum and the IRC channels who contribute knowledge and help solve problems.

Please be safe out there!

Re: Happy Labor Day friends!

That big THANKS should go to you (and others), it's amazing all what you do and contribute. Thank you.
Devuan is my best Linux-Distro I have ever used, and the community is really helpful.
BTW: Labour Day here is on May 1st, it depends on the country where you live in.

Appreciate the kind thoughts and words. Yes, Devuan is special!

As to Labor Day . . . that is still a few days off.

Yes, happy Labour Day and many thanks to all the Devuan team and all those who help make this distribution what it is.
Of course, I'm speaking from the future, as Labour Day isn't until the 27th of October down here.

Re: Happy Labor Day friends!

Yep, Labor Day isn't until Monday here in the US, but folks start celebrating the long weekend today. I'm actually going to be laboring today as I have some yard work that needs doing, lol, but that's okay, it's a nice day to be outside.

Re: Happy Labor Day friends!

Devuan may not do as much as I would suggest to getting rid of bloat, but even getting rid of systemd is a good start anyhow.

As for what I would remove as dependencies from packages that don't need it? Well I could say, but its off topic for now. poetterware/redhatware/freedesktop.orgware is all I will say.

Anywho glad devuan exists anyhow.
