A desktop built from scratch
Its own display server and Wayland compositor in C and its own interface engine, on a solid Debian base. Light enough for a Raspberry Pi, smooth on a modern PC.
Version 0.7.0 · Beta
The free, fast and secure Linux desktop.
LordOS is a free GNU/Linux distribution based on Debian with its own desktop environment, display server and Wayland compositor built from scratch in C, its own interface engine, and native apps made to feel calm, clear and private.
Everything you need. Nothing you don’t.
A complete desktop with native apps, privacy built in, and the Linux apps you already use.
Private by design
Apps run isolated and ask before using your camera, microphone, files or network. You decide.
A firewall you can see
Watch every connection on a live world map, then allow or block it per app.
Passwords built in
A vault for passwords, 2FA codes and cards that unlocks with a password or a USB key.
Mail, Calendar, Contacts
Native apps for your accounts, with remote images blocked until you say so.
Your Linux apps too
Chromium, Firefox and GTK apps fit right in, with the same window frame and dark mode.
Monitor
Everything at a glance
CPU, memory, network, disks and now cooling: live temperatures, fan curves and a full-speed button for heavy work.
Passwords
Your secrets, sealed
Categories, tags, a strong password generator and 2FA codes. The window is hidden from screenshots and screen sharing.
Settings
Make it yours
Dark mode, accent colors, the Dock on any side, displays, Bluetooth, energy and remote desktop, all in one place.
