Name & tl;dr

MakuluLinux LinDoz Edition 2021.02.14 Barebone/Complete Barebone version download link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1alg61P1Sjh0rQIXLNK5Hlv7v21ljYjO9/view?usp=sharing Complete version download link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZkaBLGq5JOqz4GnHoC4jwWpgb9gS2fkD/view?usp=sharing

Here's the difference between Barebone and Complete versions (from the developer himself): Barebone Build - is exactly as the name suggests, it has very little custom software pre installed, leaving a lot of that to be done by the user himself, expert users will love this build. The barebone build is also the only build between the two that is compatible with Virtualbox. However both builds are compatible with Vmware.

Complete Build - is exactly as the name suggests, it is more complete with software pre installed including an Office suite, Wine, steam and all the required libraries... all preconfigured. The Complete build is compatible with Vmware, but NOT with virtualbox.

(This 2021.02.14 build is the actual release version of current MakuluLinux LinDoz, not much has changed from previous 2021.01.29 version besides some packages updates as far as I'm aware)

What is the release date or cycle?

N/A, release whenever a version is ready

Who is the target user?

Desktop Linux users

What platforms does it support?

x64

What makes it special?

LinDoz started as a Windows clone but recently the developer has announced that they're moving away from their original decision and instead of focusing on making a Windows clone, they want to make LinDoz an unique distro in its own way but at the same time it's still somewhat familiar to those coming from Windows.

I'll be looking at this on live hardware. Which should we test - Barebones or Complete?

I'd say complete, 'cos, uh, complete experience. (that being said complete likely means most bloated given the usual rule)
