I recently found in the Maui forum the sad news that it won’t be a future release of the maybe best Linux distribution I ever used.

I really don’t understand why that could be possible.
You gave us two options, using KDE Neon or Netrunner, but I can tell you those options are not so good like Maui and I have experience with the 3 of them.
I have 2 computers right now, one desktop and one laptop. In the Laptop I had installed KDE Neon and I had the problem that the machine went overheat and the fans worked on high power, I didn’t know why, then I change to Maui and this problem dissappear, I have a silence laptop working really fine.
On the desktop I wanted to use the most stable distribution I could find, so I started with Slackware because of its good name but after a lot of work configuring all the system I got problems with instalation of software, so I dumped Slackware.
Next I tried Opensuse Leap because of the very good reputation and it was a desaster in this computer.
Then I decided to make double boot and install Maui Linux in one partition and Netrunner (Debian) inthe second.
Maui was the best sorprise ever, this OS works like charm at the first moment, we don’t need to lose hours and hours of configurations, everthig works perfect.
Netrunner in the other hand is fast so good but it don’t move so smooth like Maui, the graphics aren’t so good and some software don’t works that good like in Maui, for example Firefox is really slow, too slow would I say.

After the discovering of Maui Linux I talked a lot about this great distribution in many spanish Linux and KDE groups and some people listened to me and they installed Maui and they  had the same good experience like me. Other people said “I don’t trust in those tiny distributions, they dissappear with the time an let the users hang up” and you know what? THEY WERE RIGHT!!!!

I really don’t get it, why to dump the best KDE distribution? People like me and the other Maui users don’t want to lose time installing and configuring everthing in KDE Neon, Maui makes a perfect configuation of everything. I would never get this quality making it by myself in KDE Neon, I don't want to, I don't have time and the times when I was a computer-freaky when I wanted to learn everything about computers are in the past away for me.
Some prefer the work behind Ubuntu from the work behind of Debian because it is really easy to install a non-Linux software becase they have allways a .DEB for Ubuntu (sometimes those installers doesn’t work on Debian).

I am not the only one whi think like this, did you read this review of dedoimedo?
[/url][url=https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/maui-2-1-blue-tang.html]https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/maui-2-1-blue-tang.html
where other distributions failed, Maui got a qualification of 9/10, better that Opensuse, Debian and others more “Stable” distributions.
Or this other review in spanish:
https://colaboratorio.net/enrique/gnulinux/2017/maui-linux-2-entre-kubuntu-y-kde-neon/
again aone of the best qualifications, and yes, the autor made this review because of me and all what I said to him about Maui Smile
or this review:

Sorry for thi long entrance, I am really sad and disappointed with all this theme.
