While you weren’t looking, Makulu Linux went through a rebranding, a rebase on Debian 12, and got a bunch of new features like an on-board local AI virtual assistant!

    this sounds awesome. will try.

    edit: nope. I won’t. this is too scammy.

    Upgrade to Pro build Also now gives you Access to Makulu Max Pro Unlock the AI voice system Unlock AI Widget

    that is the LAST thing that comes to mind with FOSS. So Makulu does NOTHING but sell some of their AI Cloudstuff with the “Pro Version”. That is useless. We all will be using gpt4all.io or alike locally with loads of cpus and not gpus.

    Why would anyone try out Makulu if it is just a plain linux and I would have to pay for their cloudshit?! fuck em!

      According to my extensive research of the first sentence of the article, it appears to now be MakuluLinux Max
