4.0

A new base, rebuilt, not borrowed

A 24.04 LTS base and GNOME 46, with five years of security updates already behind it. All 324 packages were rebuilt on this base rather than carried over one by one, so nothing quietly still assumes the previous system underneath.

The desktop is ours, not a costume

Theme, icons, fonts, sounds, wallpapers, boot animation and login screen: every visible piece was rebuilt for 4.0. What you see at boot and at login is the same coherent product as the desktop itself, not an upstream shell wearing our logo.

The everyday tools, one product

Cyclop Settings, Files, Monitor and Calendar replace the stock GNOME defaults, redesigned so the tools people open every day look and behave like they belong to the same system, not a loose collection picked up along the way.

Licensing lives on your account, not a key you paste

The paid editions unlock straight from your Cyclop account, on the machine itself, the moment your subscription is active. Nothing to reinstall, no separate activation step, no license file to keep track of.

A bad update undoes itself in one step

System snapshots are configured out of the box on every install. If an update goes wrong, going back is one action, not a reinstall and a rebuild of everything you had configured.

Everything installs from one place

Cyclop Store ships as part of the base system: search, install and update software from one catalogue, already on the machine, with nothing extra to set up.
