DistroWatch published two reviews on CRUX 3.6.1 and NuTyX 20.12.0.

CRUX 3.6.1 Review

Coming into the new year I decided I wanted to simplify things a bit and explore a distribution that didn't have as many features and distractions. I decided to kick off my week with CRUX, an independent distribution with a keep it simple (KIS) approach. CRUX runs on x86_64 computers exclusively and the latest version, 3.6, appears to be focused almost entirely on package upgrades rather than new features.

NuTyX 20.12.0 Review

Since CRUX was not working out for me, I switched gears and the next day downloaded another keep it simple distribution, this time grabbing a copy of NuTyX. This distribution is built upon Linux From Scratch and uses a custom package manager called cards. The NuTyX project is a rarity in that it is one of the few distributions which allow users to select their preferred init software at boot time. SysV init, systemd, or RuNyX (a modified version of runit) can be selected at boot time. The distribution is available in several editions for x86_64 machines. The desktop editions offered are KDE, LXDE, MATE, and Xfce. I decided to try the Xfce edition, which is a 986MB download.
