Cub Linux (formerly Chromixium) is a great Linux distribution that mixes both the Chrome and Ubuntu experience. Cub Linux’s development has officially stopped, however, there is hope that Cub Linux will carry on. There is talk that a fork of Cub Linux is in-development. The forked project is called Phoenix Linux. For more information, please visit this open issue:

I commented on the issue:
I just want to say that I continue to use Cub Linux everyday! I love Cub Linux!
I don’t have a great amount of development experience within furthering Linux OS features. However, if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know! I have taken Cub Linux (Ubuntu 14.04) and upgraded it to Ubuntu 16.04. There were some features that broke (going from 14.04 to 16.04). However, it still works okay for me.
Very eager to see Phoenix Linux!
I have to speak my mind on this project because Cub Linux needs to continue. I understand that in the open source community, there can be developers that feel unappreciated. I am writing this to say that every project in the open source community is welcome and appreciated! No matter what a project’s purpose is, everyone should be welcome to contribute to open source applications.
Thank you to anyone reading this post! Please spread the word about Cub Linux! Here are some resources to get you acquainted with what Cub Linux is, if you don’t know already:
