I was linked here from >itsfoss.com/lightweight-linux-beginners/<
It says it is a link to a list of included programs. Obviously it is not and I don't immediately see anywhere they are listed on the site. Recommend you either have a list we can see or talk to Itsfoss about changing their article text. You will get better response to Sparky if you do. Thanks.
Default look is far ancient while the look of manjaro,solus is much good I just suggest that you use adpta and papirus icon theme or at least have them in repos and for game over edition use lxqt not bare openbox with better looking themes
The only reason I hesitate on this is because of systemd. I am definitely not a fan. But, I have some games I would like to play, so I’m going to give it a try.
Can you do a FDE install?
I´m glad I discovered SparkyLinux. It´s the best distro I´ve ever used.
I recently discovered Sparky Linux while looking for a lightweight distribution in oder to revive my 2007 Acer Aspire laptop. Unfortunately the 64-bit version did not work, but the 32-bit version runs like a charm. How did i not discover this gem before?
Keep up the great work.
Una distribución maravillosa basada en Debian testing, ligera, muy rápida y con LXQT de serie. Buenísima
Can I install Sparky Linux with Cinnamon DE ?
Use MinimalGUI/CLI iso https://sparkylinux.org/wiki/doku.php/minimal
sparky is the “best” distribution i’ve ever experienced, better than windows and mac, it’s fast secure and reliable, i finally found the best of the best
thanks to all readers
la mejor distro Debian para PC antigua tanto como nueva… veloz y eficaz!
graciass Sparky y gracias Linux…
It would be quite nice for people just getting into Linux, if there was an FAQ detailing what each version is, what each version is geared toward, etc.
thank you
Everything (mayby not everything ready yet) is in the Sparky Wiki:

I tested the new LXQT version and was surprised that all programs I like are already preinstalled in the home edition. I just installed a few games. Also wine is running perfect and all that sparky tools like Sparky APTus are really useful for beginners. I installed sparky Linux on a USB-stick too, wich I need, because I often have to use old windowsXP machines which haven’t got for example libreoffice or vlc installed.
Thank you and please keep up this great work!
I recently tried Sparky Linux Game Over 3.6 inside VirtualBox. It’s awesome and think this is the distro for I’ve been looking for. I’m going to play around with 4.2 for a while but I think it might be the one I move to from Windwoes. Thank you and keep up the good work!!
