The introduction by the creator:

It's in https://distro.fedesito.me/ , It's a Pokedle inspired game, in which you try to choose the Linux distro based on it's characteristics/features.

If you want to add features/distros feel free to do a pull request, the project is opensource at my ShitHub (link in website).

Why? How the hell does this make sense?

Was kinda fun but a lot of fields don't make sense for a lot of distros.

Wahhh, sorry. Jeroba timed out while making the post, and I know sometimes when it does that it posts anyway so I normally check...and I did this time as well, but it didn't show up so I figured it had actually failed...and it hadn't...ughhhh.
