LCOS, short for the Lunduke Computer Operating System, is a Linux distribution built by Bryan Lunduke around a specific set of personal preferences rather than being run as an open community project. The README describes it plainly as a Linux system built by Lunduke, for Lunduke. It is based on Devuan, which is a version of Debian that has removed the Systemd init system, and it ships a stripped down version of the Brave Origin web browser as the default. The stated core principles behind the project include no age or identity verification, no requirement to create online accounts, no built in AI features, no Systemd, and a preference for older style ninetys era interface design running on top of modern underlying technology. The README describes the governance of the project as a monarchy, meaning one person retains full control over both the technical direction and the organization of the project, rather than being managed collectively by contributors. The stated reasoning is to prevent the kind of organizational takeover that the author says has happened to other open source projects. Where possible, the project tries to avoid maintaining its own private forks of other software. Instead, when a change is needed in an upstream project LCOS depends on, the preference is to fund developers of that upstream project directly, so the fix benefits everyone using the original software. Any code that is specific to LCOS is published separately in a dedicated branding and packaging repository. The project is described as being in an early stage of development, so bugs should be expected. Support, questions, and discussion happen on a dedicated forum that is limited to paying subscribers of the author's separate publication, in order to keep the discussion focused. The README does not mention a software license for this repository.
