Parrot, fuck... I never got that distro, it's like Manjaro, but worse...

Isnt Parrot OS debian based and for pen-testing, like Kali?

Might be, I might have mixed it up 🤷.

And all Linux distros are basically the same thing, you can pen test with any distro. The package managers and repos are what makes them unique and interesting.

I really have no idea why someone would make another pen testing distro. Kali was enough, Parrot was like reinventing the wheel. I mean any descent distro has those same tools in repo. Install them if you like, make an image of the install, use it as a pen testing distro.
