mastodon 4.8.0-nightly.2026-10-06#AnduinOS is a custom #Ubuntu -based #Linux distribution that aims to facilitate developers transitioning from #Windows to Linux by maintaining familiar operational habits and workflows. (This account is maintained by the community)
Excited to see the community asking for OEM install options on #AnduinOS!
This could be a game changer for resellers wanting a seamless Linux experience for users switching from Windows. Looking forward to seeing this feature in future releases! 🖥️🐧 #Linux #OpenSource
AnduinUpdater is on GitHub — a tool designed to streamline your update process efficiently. Perfect for keeping your projects up-to-date with ease! #OpenSource #DevTools #AnduinUpdater
Great #software knows no borders. Judging code by a developer’s nationality misses the point—tools like #China ’s v2ray show innovation fights #censorship worldwide. Let’s value software for its impact, not its origin. #TechWithoutBorders
AI translation is fast & cost-effective, but human translators bring cultural nuance & context. The best results? A collaborative approach combining AI speed with human expertise for accuracy and quality. #Translation #AI #LanguageTech #Collaboration
Linux gaming just keeps getting better— #Steam now supports most popular distros, and #Proton lets you play thousands of Windows games seamlessly.
With growing hardware compatibility and easy setup, playing your Steam library on #AnduinOS is easier than ever! 🎮✨ #LinuxGaming
Some #FOSS projects take explicit political stances — like ClamAV blocking all of #Russia in support of Ukraine.
#AnduinOS, however, is committed to neutrality.
We respect diverse perspectives and maintain a neutral position on sensitive issues, such as the status of Taiwan, rather than aligning with any one government’s claims.

"Russian localization for custom features AnduinOS" by Domanffe
"The usual default localization of #Ubuntu is not enough for #AnduinOS, as it includes new features that do not have #Russian localization. Russians Russian localization I can help with AnduinOS localization"
You can help translation via #Weblate or #Transifex .
"WSL Support" by abc123-hash-boop
我建议用Docker模拟WSL,可以通过不同容器来切换系统，只不过不支持systemd服务，但是网上有让Docker容器支持Systemd的教程
>> Yes, it is planned.
"[FEATURE REQUEST] Windows Hello Counterpart" by abrhst
"I was wondering if you could get something like #Windows Hello and make it work with passkeys (Windows Hello to sign in) just like on Windows."
Exploring office suite options on #AnduinOS: #LibreOffice is widely adopted in #Europe as a free alternative to #Microsoft Office, though it can sometimes render files less perfectly. WPS Office is another strong contender. What alternatives do you use?
Many users report #GitHub shadowbanning accounts — making repos & profiles invisible to others without notice. New accounts often flagged automatically, sometimes requiring #phone or ID verification to regain access. This opaque system disrupts legitimate work and social logins, with poor support and unclear appeal processes. #Transparency and better user communication are urgently needed to fix these harmful automated bans. #Shadowban

#Linux systems need #firewall just like #Windows to control incoming and outgoing connections. By default, Linux may not expose open ports, but once services run, a properly configured firewall is essential to prevent unauthorized access and data leaks in today’s threat landscape. #Cybersecurity
Did you know the creator of #AnduinOS chose #AI-powered translation over collaborative platforms like #Weblate or #Transifex? 🤖

What’s your take: do you prefer fast, scalable AI translations, or the nuance and community of collaborative localization? Share your thoughts!
Thinking about dual-booting #AnduinOS with Windows? 🖥️💡 The community discusses setups with multiple drives, USB installs, and tips for both UEFI & legacy BIOS. Key advice: always install #Windows first, and try dd mode for USB boot.

"Acces to AnduinOS via RDP" by FrankyCHAMBERS
"I use 1Remote (tabbed RDP client) to connect to my differents workstations. I had a PC with Zorin before and I could rdp out of the box from #Windows ."
How about using VNC protocol?
(for Windows Client: any VNC software such as TightVNC)
