What is Spaced Linux?
Spaced Linux is a polished desktop distribution built on Devuan Ceres, using sysvinit, MATE, and Compiz. It welcomes first-time Linux users without hiding the system from experienced users who want to inspect, customize, automate, and rebuild it.
The desktop begins with a familiar layout: a clear application menu, conventional windows, readable controls, and tools placed where people expect them. Beneath that approachable surface is a lean Devuan base, a deeply configurable Compiz desktop, Flatpak and Flathub integration, a graphical Calamares installer, and a reproducible live-build workflow.
Compiz is not an optional novelty. It is the window manager and compositor, providing smooth animation, flexible workspace behavior, window rules, accessibility features, and the visual personality that makes Spaced Linux feel alive.
