Isn't regolith more of a i3wm configuration package than a desktop by itself?
Regolith packages preconfigured i3wm (and now Sway) alongside basic utility apps (file manager, image viewer etc.) and GUI configuration manager. Notifications and similar stuff, which you have set up manually in some window managers, works out of the box. I’d call Regolith a full blown desktop environment. Too bad it’s intertwined with apt
so much, so porting it to distributions other than Ubuntu and Debian is complicated.
Linux
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.
