I rediscovered my longtime Linux favorite - thanks to a spin I didn't see coming
"At one point, a new Linux distribution came into being that made use of Enlightenment as its only desktop environment -- Bodhi Linux. After some time with Enlightenment, the primary developer decided to fork the DE and created Moksha. Moksha is still in the vein of Enlightenment, only with a dash more user friendliness. It offers a vast amount of configurations and a menu that can be accessed from anywhere on the desktop with a left mouse click."
"Like Bohdi Linux, MX Moksha still includes one of my favorite old-school Linux features: Window shading. If you've never experienced this, you can double-click on a window titlebar, and the window will roll up until all you see is the titlebar. It's a wonderful way of making space on the desktop, without having to minimize applications. Keep in mind that not all applications honor window shading. For example, Firefox does not."
Enlightenment originated in the early 2000s and remains a fun, unique desktop option. The primary Enlightenment developer forked the desktop into Moksha, adding user-friendly refinements, extensive configuration options, and a globally accessible left-click menu. MX Linux created an MX Moksha spin that applies Moksha's old-school look and feel to revive older hardware. MX Moksha includes classic features like window shading, which rolls windows up to their titlebars for desktop space, though not all applications honor shading (for example, Firefox). Moksha retains Enlightenment's flexibility while improving usability.
