Read a distrowatch review that dropped earlier today discussing the two of them and kind of tears them apart: https://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20250714. I used both a year or so ago and Aeon seemed to perform well enough, but I was pretty disappointed with Kalpa. What are folks experiences with them and how do they compare with something like Fedora Atomic Desktops if you have experience with both?

Not shocked at the issues. The review I mention at the top of the post has some similar lockups upon boot. I am a TW desktop user as well and am planning on keeping it that way, but I'll definitely give Aeon a go on a laptop and see if it has the same issues you mentioned or whether it's a more a hardware issue. Thanks for sharing your experiences!

Yeah, no worries! I like the idea of Aeon, I just had some trouble with it. I'll see how the next few months go.
