"I think it's fine so long as it's clear that your project is your own and not affiliated with the original. Have fun!" — Dustin (original Antergos founder)
Status: done. GitHub is a read-only tombstone.
Euri Linux (formerly Antergos NeXT) has fully migrated from GitHub to our self-hosted Gitea forge.
This follows upstream direction: Artix Linux uses Gitea as its official forge, and we align with that standard.
All development, CI/CD, ISO tooling, and package work now lives on our NAS-backed Gitea infrastructure. The migration is finished — this org is kept as an archived historical tombstone.
- All development will move to the new Gitea forge.
- All existing GitHub repositories will be archived after migration.
- The GitHub organization will remain online, but will transition into a bug‑tracker‑only org.
- A new repository named bug-tracker will be created on GitHub for users who prefer GitHub or follow upstream policies.
- All code, pipelines, and releases will live on the self‑hosted forge.
Euri Linux follows upstream direction.
Artix Linux uses Gitea as its official forge, and we will maintain compatibility with upstream workflows, tooling, and contributor expectations.
Gitea provides:
- Full control over infrastructure
- Faster CI/CD execution
- Custom theming and branding
- Integrated package and ISO pipelines
- A unified backend for ArchWeb and repo metadata
All development now happens at:
https://antergos-nas.taild4360b.ts.net/Euri-Linux
This includes:
- Source code
- Issues (primary tracker on Gitea)
- Pull requests
- Releases
- ISO build pipelines
- Package metadata
- CI/CD logs
This org is an archived tombstone. Every repository carries a move-notice and is read-only.
- Old links keep working (GitHub redirects renamed repos)
- History, issues and PRs stay browsable
- No confusion about where the project lives: it lives on Gitea
-
Point your clones at the new forge:
git remote set-url origin https://antergos-nas.taild4360b.ts.net/Euri-Linux/<repo>.git
-
File issues on Gitea.
-
Old GitHub PRs/issues remain viewable here for reference.
- CI/CD runners (native Artix host runner) are operational on the NAS.
- The pacman repo is served straight off the same box via Tailscale Funnel.
- ISO builds run on NAS hardware — slower than cloud CI, fully ours.
The migration aligned us with upstream (Artix uses Gitea) and made the project fully independent and self-hosted.
GitHub stays frozen as history. See you on the forge.
— Michał, Euri Linux maintainer
- The Antergos heritage — carried forward with Dustin's blessing (see the name saga below)
- The Calamares installer — mature, upstream-supported, online mode (BYODE script for bare-system offline installs)
- A modern Arch-like live environment that just works
- Community-driven development — contributions welcome on Gitea
- Artix Linux base with Dinit (switchable via changing-init.md) instead of Arch/systemd
- Calamares as the primary installer — online (netinstall with multiple DEs) + BYODE offline script
- KDE Plasma as the default desktop environment (GNOME removed — systemd dependency)
- buildiso (artools) for ISO builds
- Modern CI — packages auto-built by Gitea Actions, deployed to the self-hosted repo
- Euri branding throughout — about dialog, installer theme, default branding fallback
- Layan-based Euri theme — Kvantum, SDDM, GRUB theme, plasma plasmoids, Konsole, Yakuake skin
This isn't a 1:1 replica of anything. Cnchi is retired (too unstable to maintain), outdated design choices and unmaintainable packages are gone, and systemd stays out. The past informs, it doesn't confine.
Euri Linux uses Dinit — it's lightweight, fast, and stays out of the way. Artix provides Dinit, OpenRC, Runit, and S6; we chose Dinit as the supported default because OpenRC has service-enable bugs on installed systems. You can switch to another init via changing-init.md in the ISO repo.
All repos live on Gitea: https://antergos-nas.taild4360b.ts.net/Euri-Linux
| Repo | Description |

📜 Fun fact — the name saga
The project launched as Antergos NeXT — a direct nod to the original. After a request from a former team member (who was not Dustin), it was briefly Pulsar Linux; when Dustin Falgout (one of Antergos' three founders) gave his explicit blessing to use the Antergos name, it changed back:
"I think it's fine so long as it's clear that your project is your own and not affiliated with the original. Have fun!"
Later the project embraced its own identity as Euri Linux — from Latin eurus, the east wind — keeping the Antergos lineage story visible but standing on its own name.
⚠️ To any press reading this: if you see an article claiming this project is dead or still called "Antergos NeXT", it's outdated. The project is alive and now develops as Euri Linux on self-hosted infrastructure. Check the commit history on Gitea.

Euri Linux is an independent, Artix-based distribution with heritage from the Antergos revival effort (originally blessed by Dustin Falgout). It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the original Antergos project or its developers, and it is not a sanctioned continuation of it.
Maintained solo by Michał. Updates may be slow — be patient, or better yet, contribute.
