Nice, replace Microslop Windows too pls.
The gendarmerie has had its own Linux distribution for a while now but that's about it.

Tweaking Ubuntu a bit counts and own Linux distribution?
Its how most Distros get started. Ubuntu is just tweaked Debian, with more than a decade of tweaks (and amazon spyware) piled up.
All packages are recompiled for Ubuntu and Ubuntu has everything in its own repositories. They literally distribute the software. If you just change config files a bit and the software packages still come from Ubuntu, it's not really your own distribution. It's Ubuntu and repository accesses still count towards Ubuntu stats.
