…but there is a Hannah Montana version of Linux.
Seriously.
Read that \textit{again—there is a Hannah Montana version of Linux}.\footnote{Get it while it's hot at \kref{https://hannahmontana.sourceforge.net/}{https://hannahmontana.sourceforge.net/}.}
The developer (who has chosen to remain anonymous—I understand this desire) said that they decided to create this in order to attract young users to Linux. As the FAQ\footnote{\kref{https://hannahmontana.sourceforge.net/faq.html}{https://hannahmontana.sourceforge.net/faq.html}} says, ``I created this idea after a lot of reading and work''.
The problem with this sort of approach is that television shows geared toward tweens and teens come and go like busboys in a restaurant. Here today, gone five minutes later. I have no doubt that a lot of middle school students in 2024 have no idea who Hannah Montana is. (As it \textit{should} be.)
Still, I applaud the work that went into this. If nothing else, it shows that you can pretty much do anything with Linux if you have the time and the energy and also the curiosity.
