SavOS ~ "Be Human"

"SavOS" is a modern inline upgrade for supported Ubuntu-based systems spanning at least the past eight years, with a focus on LTS (Long Term Support) versions. SavOS is not a unique "distribution" as such. Rather, it is an enhancement to a supported Ubuntu-based install, ie. official Ubuntu releases as well as Linux Mint and other derivatives where much of the core system is identical.

A key aim of SavOS is that anyone using a supported Ubuntu-based install can easily upgrade their current system with a wide range of the latest popular audio/video, graphics, productivity, and security software. Thus, millions of people using the various Ubuntu-based operating systems can enjoy access to the same curated suite of recent and popular software with minimal fuss.

So SavOS brings modern and quality software to human beings who want to get on with their work and their creativity, without having to very often deal with the quite technical process of a full system upgrade (once every five years is more than enough!). SavOS is summarised by the tagline: "Be Human". SavOS is about the human beings who are the "end-users" and working to get much modern quality software to more of those human beings in a simple and direct manner.

Anyone using a supported Ubuntu-based release can do an "inline upgrade" of their Ubuntu-based system by adding various of the Launchpad PPAs that host SavOS packages. This is currently done via APT commands to add the various PPAs (more instructions to come soon, when the new site https://savos.tech finally gets a home page!), easily bringing latest versions of popular software.

At present the SavOS project can be described as being in "alpha" testing phase, where many people around the world are simply adding various SavOS Launchpad PPAs to upgrade their supported Ubuntu-based systems. These PPAs are all found at the current hosting site for SavOS packages (the site and all PPAs at this link are maintained by Rob Savoury, creator of SavOS):

"SavOS enhanced" is one way to describe Ubuntu-based systems with upgrades from a number of the SavOS Launchpad PPAs (found at the above linked Launchpad site). Or "SavOS empowered" or similar. To reiterate: "SavOS" is not a unique new "distribution" but a major inline upgrade bringing the "SavOS" flavour to supported Ubuntu-based systems spanning at least the past eight years.
