I've run it a lil. It's nice if you know openbox and Arch....and green LOL
I like Bunsen Labs better(same group really) because it's similar but Debian flavored with a boring old theming out of the box. I'm boring and old unless I sudo apt-get jackdaniels.

Yes, too green for me. An arch based/openbox distro I've recently fell in love with is Archcraft. https://archcraft-os.github.io/
8bit

Considering that mostly distro maintainers and fanboys/girls go there to vote, even a 10/10 score isn't impressive in small numbers.
Frankly, I don't give much on any of distrowatch's ranking systems.
Doesn't Manjaro already have an Openbox edition? Why did someone base their own openbox spin on Manjaro?
Maybe Mabox is good, but I fail to see the point; and I'm always skeptical of a distro that is based on a distro that is based on a distro.

Same reason OObooNtOO has a cinnamon. Why bother when Clem invented cinnamon and Mint is cleaner than OOu anyway
