I discovered GoboLinux not long ago and was disappointed to see it was no longer being maintained. It’s exciting to see some folks are picking it back up again.

    Doesn’t Windows leave program files and data all over the place too?

      Well, the configuration and state in both cases is all over the place. I admit that since the move to push program directories to /usr and the XDG share/config directories the problem has been largely solved. I only shared my perception when I was learning Linux, which was right after Mandriva came out

      Yes, most people aren’t aware of it as they’ve seen inside Program Files and assumed that was all the program’s data.
