Slime OS is an open-source, cloud-first operating system that rescues old x86_64 laptops and desktops from the landfill — by offloading 100% of compute to the cloud.
Why Slime OS
Your entire desktop lives in the cloud. Lose power mid-session — reconnect from any device and resume exactly where you left off, down to the cursor position.
x86_64 laptops and desktops get a new life (old Android devices — coming soon). The local client is a featherweight, read-only shell — no upgrade cycle required.
NLA (Windows) or TLS (Linux) on FreeRDP, a persistent WireGuard tunnel, Authelia for MFA, and an optional on-device lock screen with phone or PIN unlock. Lost your device? Revoke access instantly from the cloud.
Built on Debian, FreeRDP, xRDP, WireGuard, and cage. Every layer is transparent, auditable, and community-driven. No black boxes.
How It Works
Run the Slime OS installer. It performs a full-disk wipe and installs "The Membrane" — a hardened, minimal Debian core that boots into a secure, read-only kiosk.
Link your Slime account. Windows users bring their own transferable license key. No key? No problem — a free, open-source Linux desktop is provisioned automatically.
Your full desktop streams from "The Brain" via FreeRDP. Apps, files, sessions — all in the cloud. Switch devices, lose power, come back. Your session is always waiting.
