    I’m not that old of a linux user, I think Slack may have been the second distro that I tried in probably 2000 after starting on Mandrake

    Cool to see.

    I am curious though, does Slackware do anything that other Distros can’t?

    Is there a reason to choose it over say Debian or Fedora aside from it being around for so long and the nostalgia factor

      More stable than Debian.
