Dedoimedo reviews: MX Linux MX-18 Continuum - Time x Space x Fun.
"The heat is on. The stakes are high. Why, thou asketh?
Well, I crowned MX-17 the best distro of 2018, and now I'm testing the successor release, MX-18 Continuum, with all the associated hype and expectation."
And we're off again!

Linux Scoop overview.
Xfce 4.12 as default environment include xfce4 component, based on Debian 9.6 scratch and powered by Linux Kernel 4.19 series.
This is important for users who want to boot by default into systemd instead of sysVinit, good work by Adrian / MX Linux here.
Adrian: Fixed mx-boot-options, not it sets the default menu even if you use GRUB submenus.
We have the new release of the popular video ripper and transcoder, Handbrake 1.2.0, in our test repository, and it enables hardware accelerated encoding, at least for recent Intel GPUs!
We're starting a complete review of the Users Manual to bring it up to MX-18.

Unofficial, yet still to be available. Who knows what happens in the future for this one.
Just a quickie tutorial about using the wonderful MX Live USB Maker on MX Linux.
The Forum will go offline tonight Jan 05 at about 7:00 PM EST for a software upgrade. We anticipate a couple of hours to complete it. This is necessary as the current version is no longer supported and the upgrade includes bug fixes.
We've rolled in an update to the proprietary 390.87 Nvidia drivers that allow for the Nvidia Vulkan drivers to stay installed, and make the upgrade from an older driver version a much better experience.
Did you know that the Wiki has a rolling page on neat Xfce4 tricks and tips?

Interesting look at the simple syncing functions of MX-User Manager, an often overlooked tool, but one of the best user management tools out there.

Very impressed by the lastest release of #MXLinux18 by @mxlinux the team successfully build a distro that is simple to manage, that doesn't hide the complexity, but reduces dramatically the effort required to sustain the OS and get effective quickly. There is even a tool to access my iphone's photos! Amazing... I even wonder if I'm not gonna switch for good.
