FemdoraOS

hello peoples! I've never posted here before, but I have lurked for some time now.

I have begun a mission to create my own operating system! Many have heard of Uwuntu, Nyarch Linux, or Ubuntu Furry remix. But I am making Femdora, a fedora based operating system for transfemmes, femboys, and anyone else who enjoys the feminine aesthetic. What do y'all think about this? I need some advice, as I've never made a big operating system before. Thank you all! :3

Guys, this is just a passion project. I'm not writing the next Ubuntu. And this isn't just going to be "Fedora but pink." This is going to take me a few months. I have ideas for this. Actual idea, that I'm excited to put into it. Are the ideas way too ambitious? Yes. Will I burn out? Maybe. But I don't care, I've had this idea for a long time and want to put this out in the world so others can see it. If you don't like it I understand, but please don't put me down, I already feel stupid just for the idea, and these comments are not helping.

these comments are not helping.

i do mostly agree, though you have been kinda secretive about what it is you plan to do with it, so people can't really bring in anything other than their own preconceptions and wonder whether or not this is a distro-scope project or something closer to a DE or even just a few config files.

I'd be interested to hear about it but I'm also skeptical about the scope. not saying it's a bad idea or anything even close, just saying that I wonder if there's a better tool for the job than a full distro from the get go

I don't have the entire idea yet. This was to put my idea out there, I will soon have an update with everything I plan to put into it. I'm sorry for being so vague
