This new Linux desktop runs like an app on your existing desktop - and I highly recommend it
Key Points:
- Orbitiny is a new, modular Linux desktop environment built from scratch using Qt and C++ that runs on top of existing desktop environments like KDE Plasma or GNOME, functioning like a portable app.
- Key features include a file manager capable of searching file contents, a plugin-enabled desktop panel with drag-and-drop support, a clipboard manager, device manager, comprehensive start menu, dashboard, desktop gestures, and icon folder emblems.
- Orbitiny can be run directly from a USB drive on any Linux distribution, making it a portable desktop solution without needing installation or replacing the host desktop.
- Although still a work in progress and recommended currently for curiosity and testing, Orbitiny has shown stable and responsive performance, accessing the host system’s files seamlessly.
