Tinycore and general compatibility
I have been experimenting with lightweight distros, and am now onto Tinycore. To the best of my understanding most Linux programs have to be downloaded for a specific distro, or am I wrong? Could I install Tor, Geeqie, or GIMP for just any distro and have it work on Tinycore? Or would I just find myself struggling to find packages?

U can get anything to work on it. Maybe they lack repos . So u can add repos and everything should work then
So,, let's go extreme here, I could run Steam off of it?
I think so.... But there would be alot of dependencies missing. Ull have to install those too
Nice. I got my bro into Linux recently and he wants to play GTA, but they've been really anti competitive market here lately and made it almost impossible. He thought about leaving Mint for Windows, but Tinycore would be great for his games.
Ok i dont think gta 5 would work that great .....see u can game on linux but don't expect the same performance for games as u had on windows
