Ok, this requires some explanation:

I was at a party quite recently, and there was a girl reading the “demonic” tarot to the people there. Now, I don’t believe in any of that, but just for laughs, I asked which linux distro I’d be installing this year, to which she pulled the “Lucifer” card. This should be “Death” in the traditional version. She told me it’s related to new beginnings or something like that.

So, I’ve got time to kill, I’m willing to try something new and I’d like to turn this into a self fullfilling prophecy.

Now, I’d like your interpretation. What would this distro be? Because this is a Linux sub-lemmy I’d give preference to linux distros; however I’m also open to any other UNIX-based operating systems if you insist.

It also has to be something new to me. So, no Artix, Debian, Fedora, Mint or Arch btw.

    Although it is the Tarot card that many people fear, Death generally does not mean physical death. The Death Tarot Card usually signifies spiritual transformation and a time of change and new beginnings, not actual death! The transformation or change that Death can bring can be difficult, unexpected, sudden or even traumatic but it will bring with it a new lease of life. Its best to try not to resist the change the Death Tarot card brings as resisting it will only make the transition difficult and painful. Instead try to embrace the change as a fresh start. This Major Arcana card can also signify the need to let go of old issues or beliefs when it appears in a Tarot spread. It may be telling you that you need to draw a line under the past in order to move forward in a positive direction. A Death card transformation can be a bit of a shock to the system but ultimately it’s a positive one.
