It is a very well done and thorough review.

I kinda wish he tried to give lazpaint a try rather than going straight to installing gimp, but I get it… use what you’re used to.

I’ll definitely check out his non-MX videos, never get enough time to mess with other things myself nowadays.

I like the detailed look at the distro, taking apps one by one, it didn't stop at "the wallpaper sucks" or "I don't like the widget style" that so many "reviewers" do. Great job!

I searched YouTube the other day, I found 1 very short but ok review, one long boring and inexperienced review, and a few that were just clicking through with subtitles.

It’s really good to see someone fiddle through and experiment with the desktop. The visual and audio feedback is the best user testing IMO. Not that our user testing here isn’t good too.

I love Tyler's accent - so pleasant to my crude American ears. I predict that the big MX review will be from DistroTube (not a very risky prediction). His top three MX videos have over 100,000 combined views now. And don't be surprised if Mental Outlaw or Luke Smith do a review to their 100,000+ youtube followers. I might be able to give them each a nudge in that direction. I know we all fondly recall Mental Outlaw's great video, "A Civilized Discussion of the Best Linux Distro Amongst Polite /g/entoomen", which prominently featured MX at the 22-second mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFSrD3QJIkk

edit - I'm wrong about DistroTube. @dolphin_oracle has over 100,000 views for his top MX video, and InfinityGalactic has over 700,000 views (!!!!) for his top 3 MX videos. :eek:

took a scan and nice job to reviewer and the TEAM! will watch it more closely tomorrow AM with my pot of coffee before i go out to work! congrats!

p.s. some of the short so-called reviews are no sound and no commentary and just a fast play look-see.

It's also one of the best LXDE distributions. Who could have known? It's a small install from the MXPI, and very usable, locally and remote with x2go, with zero tweaks.
