 # Welcome To MassOS
 Welcome to **MassOS**, a [free](https://github.com/MassOS-Linux/MassOS/wiki/MassOS-and-Free-Software) GNU/Linux operating system for x86_64 devices, which aims to be minimal and lightweight, without compromising features. It uses the [Xfce](https://xfce.org) desktop environment.

-The MassOS system itself is under 5 gigabytes. Quite impressive for a GNU/Linux distribution containing a full desktop environment and common programs, as well as development tools/headers. Some distributions are able to achieve minimalism by using smaller replacements for common GNU software, at the cost of some features. With MassOS, you get the minimal size, without compromising the advanced features exclusive to GNU software.
+Please visit the MassOS website, https://massos.org, and/or the [About MassOS](https://github.com/MassOS-Linux/MassOS/wiki/About-MassOS) wiki page to learn more about MassOS and its goals.
 # Not Based On Any Other Distro
 MassOS is completely independent and built entirely from the ground up; it is not based on any other distribution. Due to not being dependent on another distribution, it is able to boast the latest and greatest in software versions.
 
-The MassOS base system itself already contains a large selection of software which should suit most users. Instead of using a "classic" package manager (although [one is currently in development](https://github.com/TheSonicMaster/masspkg)), the universal **Flatpak** package manager (complemented by the GUI Gnome Software centre) can be used to install GUI-based software. AppImages are also supported. Additionally, developer-orientated users may also wish to compile software themselves, since the necessary tools and headers are provided with the system.

 # About This Repo
 This repo contains the scripts which are used to build the complete MassOS system. Most people won't want to run these. Instead, you can download the latest release tarball of MassOS from the [releases page](https://github.com/TheSonicMaster/MassOS/releases).
 # Releases
 The latest release of MassOS can be downloaded from the [releases page](https://github.com/TheSonicMaster/MassOS/releases). From there you can also view the release notes and check out past releases too.
 
-Release numbers follow the format **YYYY.MM**. For example: the August 2021 release was **2021.08**. On a working MassOS system, you can check the version by running `massos-release`. There is a new release of MassOS roughly once or twice per month. New releases will usually include updated software. A new release in the same month as an existing release will typically be less major, and will have a version in the format **YYYY.MM.2**. You can upgrade an existing MassOS installation by using the [MassOS Upgrade Utility](https://github.com/TheSonicMaster/massos-upgrade).
