    Just wanted to point out a small discrepancy in your comment, Eddy is not Pop specific. Eddy was actually made for ElementaryOS as shown of the author's GitHub. System76 just includes it with Pop!_OS, probably because it makes a good companion to the ElementaryOS AppCenter which is what the Pop!_Shop essentially is but with some tweaks. Also you can run Eddy on any Ubuntu based system but you would have to build it from source yourself.

    That means that I've been actively using it for about 8 years now! Back then it was the only Linux-based OS that was lightweight enough for my old Asus laptop not to overheat.

    It's the little things that make me always back to it:

    - If I've made a selection in terminal, Ctrl+C will copy it. If there's no selection, it will kill the process as usual.

    - Simple math directly from the launcher without the need to open calculator. Just press meta key, type the calculation, see the result. I wish it did more than that, but I'm using a third-party launcher for that stuff (ulauncher.io).

    - Fuzzy search in the app launcher. I'm quite annoyed that I have to type "fire" in the launcher in every other OS I've tried to start Firefox. In elementary OS, I can do "ffox", "ffx", or anything resembling what I'm looking for, and Firefox will pop up.

    Overall the system just gets out of my way and lets me launch apps quickly and navigate between them with breeze, which is precisely what I'm looking for in an OS. There's also a couple of third-party apps specifically designed for it that I absolutely love, most notably Planner (https://planner-todo.web.app/) and Eddy (https://github.com/donadigo/eddy).

    Congrats on the awesome decade team! I hope for many more successful ones and can't wait for the v6 to be ready for my laptop!
