I had a lot of fun developing Lubuntu Tips, but I'm letting it lapse into an indefinite hiatus. I started the blog out of an indebtedness to the open source community and the Lubuntu community in particular.
However, I'm moving on from Lubuntu. All the reasons that drew me to the distro in the beginning (lightweight and not Unity) is pushing me toward a more thoughtful, beautiful distro: elementaryOS.
After sticking with Lubuntu for a few releases, I was disappointed by the slow development, the improving but still drab appearance, and the overall lack of vision. I believe elementary has the potential of breaking the Linux mold and creating something very special and elegant.
Thanks for reading.
