Thanks for the reply,

Trinity is not a distro without systemd and probably why you did not find it, but there are a distro or two with no-systemd that use Trinity.

Personally I like clean base installs and then add the desktop and Trinity is a KDE Desktop based on the award winning KDE3 desktop that was abandoned by KDE about 9-10 yrs ago, adapted and updated by Timothy Pearson, who used to develop Kubuntu, since KDE3 was abandoned.

It might still be available for one of them, but I suspect that when I
looked, it wasn't the main desktop environment for any of them.

Unless there's a packager behind the scenes working on it (fingers
crossed for you), Devuan itself doesn't have it packaged, so it's
unsurprising that (at a glance) no distribution based on Devuan
features Trinity.

I was still curious..

I tried to find the developers' reasoning in building it, as
philosophies are a fascinating read for me.  I had no luck. It appears
to be a continuation that matured into its own desktop environment.

May I ask your reasoning for wanting Trinity?

   [ I wonder if you can be convinced of another environment (or none at
   all) enough to migrate and use Devuan. ]


Simple, I'm a point and click user and KDE in my opinion is the best.

Cheers!
