Long time not seen...

November 06, 2025 — Jan Montag

Dear friends of PowerPC Linux, Unix and especially the Powermac G5, I've not written since quite a time. The reason was my other Webproject [¹] which I managed to melt with another Website and beside that, move it into a Docker Container and run it and adopt everything and so on and on and on... you know - from stick to wood like someone says. :-)

But what I want to say is that I am using Arch POWER ppc64 Linux now for quite some time every day and while I am listening to Navidrome streamed MP3 [²] in my TerminalDrome Client or do some Webstuff with Firefox or sending Mails via Calws-Mail, I am absolutely happy and it never crashed or something like that. It works so well.

So when you want to use a Powermac G5 these days, I recommend Arch Linux as the best distro outside whith the fewest hazzle to get things working.
