+EuroLinux Desktop Review: A Worthy Alternative to Ubuntu LTS?
+======
+A detailed review of EuroLinux Desktop – a desktop Linux OS from the EuroLinux team.
+
+EuroLinux is a Polish company which has been developing open-source server OS and solutions for almost a decade, mostly in the Europe market. The company is also known for its Linux server operating system (OS) based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).
+
+A couple of weeks back, the company introduced a desktop operating system based on RHEL – “EuroLinux Desktop”.
+
+Since few distros are available based on RHEL, I thought of giving it a spin and finding out how it is designed, its performance, etc. Moreover, the team markets the distro as *“combines the look and functionality of Windows® and macOS® with the reliability and security of a server-based Enterprise Linux distribution”.*
+
+EuroLinux desktop is free to download and install. However, you can buy the support if you are a small business owner or have other commercial needs.
+
+Let’s find out how it looks.
+
+### EuroLinux Desktop Review
+
+#### Installation and ISO Size
+
+The ISO of the EuroLinux desktop is whooping 7GB+ (version 9.0). The reason is that ISO pre-loads all the necessary packages and applications in the ISO for offline installation. It also serves the target users, institutions, and schools which may not have an active internet connection.
+
+EuroLinux uses the standard Anaconda installer used by most RHEL-based distros. The installation steps are simple and remain basic.
+
+While testing no major problems in the installation, which took around 7 to 8 minutes of total time.
+
+#### The first look
+
+![EuroLinux Desktop 9.0][1]
+
+Since the EuroLinux desktop is based on RHEL, it follows the RHEL release cycle. The current version which I am reviewing is version 9.0, based on RHEL 9.0 – which features a standard GNOME desktop.
+
+Since RHEL is a little conservative regarding the latest package adoption for its critical servers and workstations use cases, you get the GNOME 40 with Linux Kernel 5.14 in the EuroLinux Desktop 9.0.
+
+So, at first look, you experience a nice and clean GNOME 40 desktop with some additional customization.
+
+The customizations on stock GNOME comes via pre-installed and enabled extensions.
+
+The dash to Panel and Desktop Icons are the two major ones. Dash to Panel gives you a bottom transparent panel with a customized tray. The tray includes the Calendar, date/time, indicators (battery, network and night mode) and quick settings.
+
+![Installed extensions by default][2]
+
+At the extreme left, the application menu launches the full-screen app view of the GNOME desktop.
+
+The default theme is Adwaita, and the only change you can experience is the Papirus icon theme.
+
+#### Applications, necessary functionalities
+
+Essential applications are pre-loaded. At least those are necessary for a basic functioning system.
+
+For example, the LibreOffice suite is fully installed. The Firefox ESR is the default web browser – which is a good choice considering the long-term support of more than five years.
+
+In addition, a text editor, image viewer, screenshot tool, and video player are all included in the default installation.
+
+There is little distinction on how to install the Software in EuroLinux. EuroLinux has its repo pre-configured from its servers. This is obvious, considering its creator is an organization.
+
+So, by default, you get the following repos.
+
+The Software app works as it should. You can easily search, install or uninstall any application using its GUI.
+
+![Software repos][3]
+
+#### Performance
+
+The performance is excellent, thanks to the RHEL base. In an idle state, GNOME Shell uses most of the system resources, including CPU and RAM. It clocks 7 to 14% CPU with 1.6GB of RAM.
+
+EuroLinux 9.0 uses 7.3 GB disk space for a default installation.
+
+If I compare this performance to [Ubuntu 22.04 LTS][4], it is indeed a very little higher (1.4 GB and 6% CPU) at idle.
+
+I believe this tiny variance is due to GNOME 42’s recent performance improvements in mutter and Shell.
+
+![EuroLinux performance at idle][5]
+
+#### Comparison with Ubuntu LTS, Rocky and AlmaLinux
+
+Fundamentally there are differences in how Ubuntu and RedHat-based distros are derived, i.e. Debian vs Fedora. And the package management system.
+
+At a high level, you get the same years of support and security updates in both distros. In fact, EuroLinux provides more extended support until one version retires.
+
+If you compare the distro from the fundamental usage standpoint, you may not know much of a difference at the surface. The only noticeable difference is the GNOME and Kernel versions. Ubuntu LTS versions are a little faster to adopt the latest GNOME and Kernel versions than RedHat (or EuroLinux).
+
+The other difference is that the package manager is dnf in EuroLinux and apt in Ubuntu.
+
+However, two other RHEL-based distros are available today (the most popular ones). They are Alma Linux and Rocky Linux. Both of them are precisely identical to EuroLinux except for the underlying software sources.
+
+But both are relatively new in the field (born after the [CentOS event][6]) two/three years back. Whereas, EuroLinux (as a server) has been in the field for nearly a decade.
+
+Also, the Rocky Linux is probably the only advantage of all, which is truly a community-driven project. And Alma Linux is actually a product from CloudLinux Inc & EuroLinux is from EuroLinux Sp. z o.o.
+
+So, if you want a true community-based Ubuntu-LTS alternative, then perhaps Rocky Linux is the one.
+
+### Should you use it for a daily driver?
+
+I believe you can safely use this for your daily use.
+
+Remember that you may not get the latest and greatest shiny GNOME & mainline Kernel right away. But hey, older packages are “proven” to work.
+
+If you need a stable desktop your average use for 5+ years without worrying about sudden crashing, boot problems, grub problems, slowness, etc. – then it’s ideal for you.
+
+Also, it’s perfect for you if you don’t like how Ubuntu is heading – forcing snap, other aspects and want to switch to a stable distro.
+
+The only trade-off now is the latest GNOME 43 vs the older GNOME 40. And you can always install the latest mainline kernel if you are an advanced user.
+
+### Wrapping Up
+
+After my day-long test, it performed exactly what was expected. No crashes or any weird errors. The distro looks and performs at par with a professional Linux operating system. You can safely install it on your Laptops and desktops for day-to-day usage. Technically you can not use the actual RedHat Linux without registration and a license. Hence, this distro could be ideal who wants Ubuntu-LTS-like stability for 5+ years besides Rocky Linux.
+
+Give it a try from the [official website][7].
