    Hello anticapitalist and antiX developers.

    Those who request changing the icon set and/or theme, please suggest alternatives.
    Remember icons MUST be in png format since fluxbox menu does not support svg
    Thanks.

    Analyzing from the point of view of an average user, someone who has never seen antiX Linux before and will see antiX 25 (antiX-25-b2_x64-full.iso) for the first time, they will notice that the icon themes are not consistent with what the program is intended to do.

    The number of icons with the color blue does nothing to help people identify the programs from the menus.

    The icons with black on a black background are imperceptible.

    I saw Linux Mint running in a YouTube video with the same icon theme as the “antiX-25-b2_x64-full.iso” ISO.

    My suggestion is to use the icon theme from antiX 16, which is much nicer than the icon theme from the “antiX-25-b2_x64-full.iso” ISO.

    From the perspective of a user who cannot read and write in English:

    The translations for the windows that warn the user that the service manager that was started is not compatible with the service manager that was started with antiX are missing.

    The translations for the menus “xine” and “Qt6 Settings” are missing.

    I suggest moving the “runit service manager” (which is in the “System” category) to the same category as the “Dinit Dialogbox Manager” and the “s6-rc dialogbox manager” (which is in the “Preferences” category). Or move the “Dinit Dialogbox Manager” and the “s6-rc dialogbox manager” to the same category as the “runit service manager”.

    I started the ISO “antiX-25-b2_x64-full.iso” with SysVinit and couldn’t find the menu generated by the “sysv-rc-conf.desktop” file. Without this menu, the end user won’t be able to configure SysVinit service startup settings.

    The ISO “antiX-25-b2_x64-full.iso” started from the USB device prepared with Ventoy booted normally and seems very fluid and lightweight on a computer with a Dual Core processor and 2 GB of DDR2 RAM.

    I appreciate you accepting the suggestion to include the F3-qt program; it will be another differentiating factor compared to other distributions designed to run from a USB device.

    And I thank all the volunteer work of everyone involved in antiX Linux.
