Did you know that in the Spanish Capital (Madrid) they had Linux Os since 2008?

Here is the URL, it is in spanish tho

Here is the github page!

(The year 2008 is on oldest of the commit changes i've seen on the github, i think they would have released the OS some time later)

It is used in schools and libraries, designed for education ofc. I've always seen a computer in my school with this OS and is based of Ubuntu and has a customized Mate DE. The latest version I tested is kinda good in some regard, but the UX sucks and I've always seen teachers be confused with the use of 2 taskbars. When I was a child i had problems trying to search for apps because this OS is bloated because this OS integrates with a lot of the education ecosystem (educamadrid) and Nextcloud (which they use for cloud), for example, is preinstalled (and shortcuts to web urls disguised as apps). Although a lot of games are installed which i don't see any type of sense cuz it would just distracts students.

The good thing is that whenever a user makes a change, that change would be reverted back on reboot. So if you forgot your education mail account there or your google account you shouldn't worry (can't say the same about windows, I've seen too many child accounts still logged in whenever I used a computer from school... Or their saved passwords, holy).

We in class usually use open source software like Libreoffice (although microsoft gives us a free student license for Office), Gimp, Inkscape, Kdenlive, FreeCAD.. So software support most of the times isn't a problem.

And this coming from a random irrelevant public school with 2 stars on google.
