Winux, previously known as Wubuntu and LinuxFX is a Linux distribution for personal computers based on the Kubuntu distribution and themed close to Windows 11. It bundles OnlyOffice and other software reminiscent of Windows. [1] [2] The Register claimed the distribution likely infringes on trademarks by Canonical and Microsoft, [1] while ZDNet warns that it might be a scam. [2]
