Our Community ♥
AcreetionOS wouldn't exist without the people who use it, test it, translate it, share it, and believe in it. This page is for all of you.
You Are the Project
AcreetionOS started as a dream — an Arch Linux that "just works" for normal people, with privacy baked in and no corporate baggage. But a dream is just a dream until people show up.
And you did. You downloaded the ISO. You told your friends. You filed bug reports at 2 AM. You wrote wiki guides. You made tutorial videos. You answered questions on Discord when we were asleep. You stood up for the project when skeptics called it "just another Arch respin."
Every single person who has ever booted AcreetionOS, shared a screenshot, helped a newcomer, or said "this is the distro that finally worked for me" — you are the reason this project is alive. Thank you.
The Many Ways You Show Up
Bug Reporters
You test the edges and tell us what's broken. Every bug report is a gift — it means you care enough to help us fix it. The 7-day stability buffer exists because you demanded it.
Translators
You make AcreetionOS speak the languages your communities speak. From Spanish to Japanese to German to Portuguese — the project is accessible because you made it so.
Content Creators
The YouTubers, the r/unixporn posters, the bloggers, the streamers. You showed the world what AcreetionOS looks like and convinced thousands to give it a try. Your FastFetch screenshots are gorgeous.
Community Helpers
The people who answer "how do I install the NVIDIA driver?" for the hundredth time with patience and kindness. You are the front line of this project, and you make newcomers feel welcome.
Contributors
Code, configs, packaging, infrastructure. You write the improvements, fix the regressions, and build the features. The Tweak Utility is better because of you. The repos are richer because of you.
Evangelists
You recommended AcreetionOS to a friend, a family member, a coworker, a stranger on a forum. You are the reason the download numbers keep climbing. Word of mouth is everything.
What You've Said
What We Promise Back to You
No Telemetry, Ever
We don't track you. We don't phone home. We don't sell your data. Your machine is yours. That's the deal, always.
Community First
Decisions are made in the open. We listen to bug reports, feature requests, and feedback. You have a voice here — use it.
Made With Love
This is a labor of love, not a venture-funded startup. Every release ships because we care. We're not going anywhere.
Free Forever
AcreetionOS will always be free, open source, and community-driven. No "pro" tier. No paywalls. No enterprise edition. Just the OS.
