The KaOS Linux team has officially released KaOS Linux 2026.06 today as the first ISO snapshot of this independent distribution using Dinit as the default init system instead of systemd.
As previously reported, the KaOS Linux devs have decided to move away from systemd and the KDE Plasma desktop environment after more than 12 years of using them by default. Earlier this year, in February, they dropped KDE Plasma for a Niri/Noctalia setup, but they were still working on replacing systemd with another init system.
