"I've seen and customized some really cool Linux desktops over the years, from minimal environments to those crazy with effects, animations, transparencies, and every bell and whistle you can imagine. And then I run into a Linux distribution that's so cool out of the box, I'm reminded just how special the open-source operating system is. Recently, I discovered StratOS, and my immediate reaction was, "Wow." I honestly can't remember the last time a Linux distribution had me staring wide-eyed at all its glory."
"Hyprland is a tiling window manager that's not exactly suited for new Linux users. Hyprland is totally keyboard-driven. You can click your mouse all you want, but nothing will happen. In other words, you have to learn a lot of keyboard shortcuts. Open terminal: Super + Return Open application launcher (Rofi): Super + Space Open file manager: Super + E"
StratOS is an Arch-based Linux distribution offered in GNOME, Hyprland, and Niri editions. The Hyprland flavor uses a tiling, keyboard-driven compositor that emphasizes shortcuts over mouse interaction, making it powerful but less approachable for beginners. Default Hyprland visuals are highly polished and impressive out of the box. Common Hyprland shortcuts include Super+Return to open terminal, Super+Space for the Rofi launcher, Super+E for the file manager, and Mod+Arrow keys to switch workspaces. StratOS is freely downloadable and installable, allowing users to experience a striking, customizable Linux desktop with modern compositor features.
