The Privacy-Focused Operating System
Your data belongs to you. AcreetionOS is designed with privacy as a core principle — zero telemetry, no data collection, no tracking, no corporate surveillance. An independent Linux distribution that respects your digital sovereignty.
Zero Telemetry
AcreetionOS collects nothing. No hardware IDs, no usage statistics, no crash reports, no browsing data. Unlike Windows, macOS, and many Linux distributions, we believe your computer usage is none of our business. What you do on your machine stays on your machine.
Repository Sovereignty
We maintain our own curated repositories. Every package is tested and verified before reaching users. No blind bundling, no untrusted sources, no corporate-controlled package repositories pushing unwanted software.
Independent & Community-Owned
AcreetionOS is a volunteer-run project funded out of our own pockets. No VC money, no shareholders, no board. We answer to our users, not to investors. This financial independence guarantees that no outside entity can exert influence over the project's direction.
No Accounts Required
Windows requires a Microsoft account. macOS ties you to an Apple ID. AcreetionOS requires nothing. Download, install, and use without ever creating an account or providing personal information. Your system is yours alone.
No Snap, No Flatpak Push
Unlike Ubuntu and Fedora, we don't force Snap or Flatpak on you. Use native Arch packages and the AUR. Package formats are your choice, not our mandate.

Ubuntu includes telemetry and pushes Snap packages aggressively. Linux Mint avoids this but uses Ubuntu's point-release model. AcreetionOS uses Arch Linux's rolling release with zero telemetry and no forced package formats.
