Slackware 15 is 99% Ready!
Today's Slackware64-current updated ChangeLog.txt begins:
Wed Jan 12 22:04:33 UTC 2022
Good hello, and welcome to the third and final release candidate for Slackware
15.0. We're 99% frozen at this point and are mostly looking for regression or
other bug reports that might be able to be addressed before this goes stable.
Friendly greetings! 🌎🌍

99% ready != 99% frozen.

This was my favorite distro in the late 90s, though things went downhill after that. When was the previous update?
The last update probably was 14.2, which seems to have been released approximately June 30, 2016. I like current, so I don't pay much attention to the releases. But I appreciate that a lot of people do like the numbered releases.
Friendly greetings! 👍
I think this pedantic criticism is funny because it's so absolutely correct! ¡Saludos!
My very first install of linux distro was Slack. The memories...
This was the first distro that I installed, good old times!
Always wanted to try slackware. Maybe it's time. What's the appeal with slackware for you guys?
KISS
Same. Slack 96 4ever!
