“KahelOS differs from many other distros in using Chromium as
its default browser, rather than Firefox. Firefox is still
available via gtkpacman if you want it. But Chromium is an
excellent choice for a browser and, if you haven’t used it yet, you
should definitely give it a chance before going back to
Firefox.

“The inclusion of the PiTiVi video editor is interesting since
Canonical has also begun bundling it into its distros. It seems
that PiTiVi is already becoming a mainstay application for
GNOME-based distros. I’m glad to see it included with KahelOS
because it definitely fills an important desktop niche for many
people.”
