Piracy-based Linux distros

Imagine installing Linux and having Microsoft word, Adobe products, or some games pre-installed without pain.

That’s Windows. What you’re looking for is Microsoft Windows. I would very much not like to imagine that.

If you want microsoft word just use windows. There's no sense in a "Piracy-based" distro, what would it be? Having wine and qbittorrent pre installed?

I pirate all Foss apps. No sense in thanking people that give to the community. /S.

That is a one-way ticket to sue island.

That would never happen, no maintainer would open themselves up to that kind of liability.

there used to be a couple recovery distros that used pirated linux tools. I can't remeber off my head since it was nearly a decade ago now that I'd seen them floating about, they weren't too popular because most people are just using either MRI and combo fix

Don't know about piracy based distros but it's really easy to pirate in Nobara using lutris and comes pre configured for gaming. It also has Only office which has amazing compatibility with MS office

Why would you need a Linux “distribution” that was just illegal copies of Windows applications?

If you are going to pay for MS Office, Office 365 online works great on Linux actually. If you do not want to pay for office, I would personally use LibreOffice or Only Office even on Windows.

Adobe runs notoriously poorly on Linux. If you need real Photoshop, you should run Mac or Windows. Otherwise PhotoPea, GIMP, or Krita may work for you.

Games are mostly working great on Linux these days ( pirate copies are not going to run any better ).
