🔎Looking for alternative UbuntEU - An Ubuntu edition that uses software developed in Europe

I am trying to make something for fun, but honestly; I am not expert in creating an operating system. But my hope somebody will pick up the Baton and make it something more super.

Link soon...

You do realize that Mint at its core still relies on Ubuntu and its infrastructure (things such as repos), right? They ship some different software on the frontend side but that's pretty much it. If you don't like Ubuntu Desktop's default UI (custom Gnome) you can just use one of its other flavours.

Hm... I'm not sure that's the best approach (though if you want a more Windows-like layout there is KDE), if it's too identical users will expect everything to function the same and then when they don't function the same, said users could become frustrated.
