Congratulations to the team at Garuda and all you members.
Without you we could never have reached this milestone.
Thank you all for making this happen. 
P.s I know its a little early (by 8 members ) but I will be in bed when it happens

You start the party and then want to go to bed?
That’s not possible.

Do they still call that a party pooper? Asking for 10,000 Garuda members.

Compared to the period from March 2023 to March 2025, when there were ~125 new users per month, the growth rate has increased by more than 30% over the last six months, with ~160 new users per month.
This increase is well deserved recognition of the excellent work done by the Garuda team.
Congratulations!

This is a huge accomplishment for such a new distro. I can remember back to when hitting 100 or 200 users was painfully slow, and felt like big milestones at the time. Having ten thousand forum members was simply unimaginable in the fiirst year Garuda was started. To think back to those days, and to see how Garuda has grown now, is almost miraculous.
Our users also deserve a big pat on the back for their monthly financial contributions which helps cover Garuda’s server costs. Without our users generous monthly donations Garuda would cease to be.
Thanks to all.

Solid Distro, welcoming devs & good community. I personally believe this is what Linux should be about 
One think that is on my mind for a long time, maybe its somewhere written but I didn’t found.
What was the reason to start Garuda?
Is there any funny story behind it?
