<h2 class="h4 text-uppercase font-weight-bold mb-3">Introduction</h2>
|
|
<p class="mb-0">The Dark Horse Linux Project (DHLP) provides to you a Linux distribution designed to prioritize user freedom and functionality amidst unwanted supply chain interference by self-interested megalithic entities more concerned with user control than user freedom.</p>
|
|
</div>
|

<div class="card-body p-3">
|
|
<h2 class="h4 text-uppercase font-weight-bold mb-3">The Problem</h2>
|
|
<p class="mb-0">The modern Linux ecosystem has drifted from its roots. Major distributions now ship with telemetry enabled by default, push snap packages that phone home, force GNOME desktop on users regardless of preference, and accept patches blindly from corporations whose interests don't align with their users. Upstream projects increasingly make decisions that prioritize enterprise contracts over individual freedom. The result is an operating system that works for vendors first and users second.</p>

<div class="card-body p-3">
|
|
<h2 class="h4 text-uppercase font-weight-bold mb-3">Our Approach</h2>
|
|
<p class="mb-0">By harnessing carefully chosen components, Dark Horse Linux delivers a transparent computing experience, staying true to the original essence of the Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS) movement. Every package is selected on merit alone. Every patch is publicly auditable. Every build is reproducible. We don't accept contributions based on who submits them—only on whether they serve the user's interests.</p>

|
|
<h2 class="h4 text-uppercase font-weight-bold mb-3">Technical Philosophy</h2>
|
|
<p class="mb-0">DHLP maintains parent leaf status: we are not based on another distribution. There is no upstream project to inherit politics from, no vendor relationship to maintain, no corporate sponsor to appease. We build from source using a fully auditable toolchain. You get a complete Linux/GNU environment—SystemD, glibc, GCC—without the baggage that comes from derivative distributions beholden to upstream decisions.</p>

<h2 class="h4 text-uppercase font-weight-bold mb-3">Who This Is For</h2>
|
|
<p>Dark Horse Linux serves developers and security professionals and enthusiasts who want to understand their entire stack, system administrators tired of fighting their own operating system, privacy-conscious users who refuse default telemetry, and anyone who remembers when Linux meant freedom—not just "free as in beer" but free as in sovereignty over your own machine.</p>
|
|
<p class="mb-0">It also benefits systems experts who want to deploy minimal containers with minimal OS runtimes that they have full stack control over for throughput and orchestrative optimization. It's up to you what you deploy, not your OS vendor.</p>
