    Shame they don't seem to offer a Linux version.

    i've never used linux, but because of omnimix' popularity, and that for
    example "tails is based on debian gnu/linux" (https://tails.net/debian),
    it really does seem like omnimix could use a linux-compatible "addition"
    or whatever software programmers call it, a fork, branch, recoding, etc.
