Hannah Montana Linux is getting an update after 18 years. Will it be just updating all the software and standards or will it re-envision Hannah Montana nostalgia with hindsight? Can you ever step in the same river twice?

It truly is the year of the linux desktop.

It's always the year of desktop Linux.

It was funny (and untrue) when desktop Linux was constantly at ~1% market share. But now with desktop Linux slowly but constantly rising, it's actually true!

Will it also go through the "wrecking ball"-phase?

That would be Miley Cyrus Linux. Which doesn't exist. But if it did I would name my localhost Jolene.

Miley Cyrus Linux exists, but you cannot have it and Hannah Montana Linux on the same partition.

I'd probably install it in that case. Like a dark mode.

So since it is basically just a pre-themed Debian installation, it would not only be a gimmicky Linux distribution but a viable daily driver as well.

I remember when the original came out.

Renewing the theme is funny I guess, but its not really a distrobution. I hate that article for this.
