I think you mean GNU/Linux

[-] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 47 points 4 weeks ago

Look Richard no matter how many times you post this, no-one is going to start calling it GNU/Linux.

[-] sxan@midwest.social 32 points 4 weeks ago

In fact, systemd is arguable a more important component covering more aspects of system function in a lot of distributions: home mounting, boot process, logging, init, cron... I'm going to start calling it systemd/Linux, just to mess with Stallman.

[-] cqst@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 4 weeks ago

Uh no, it's not. GNU has been integral to the GNU/Linux project for years. Without GCC, coreutils, glibc, there would be no linux distributions. Systemd has not played the same role.

[-] Smc87@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 4 weeks ago

But now we have systemd so GNU can get fucked, bitch.

systemd is an init system and just has not played the same role in the development of GNU/Linux distributions like GNU has. before systemd there was sysvinit, and there are number of alternate init systems. It's not about system functionality that we name operating systems.

You're an init system and just has not played the same role in the development of GNU/Linux distributions like GNU has.

Still tho, gnu can suck my cock

[-] targetx@programming.dev 2 points 3 weeks ago

If it could I'm sure a lot more people would be willing to call it GNU/Linux.

[-] sxan@midwest.social 0 points 4 weeks ago

Chimera Linux, Linux with the BSD user-space. No GNU.

No systemd, either, so double-bonus.

[-] cqst@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 weeks ago

It's proprietary so, no thanks.

[-] sxan@midwest.social 1 points 3 weeks ago

Proprietary? Wherever did you get that idea?

[-] nesc@lemmy.cafe 2 points 4 weeks ago

People actually do call it gnu/linux semi-often, dunno why.

[-] semperverus@lemmy.world 0 points 4 weeks ago

I almost always do it facetiously and for meme purposes.

[-] Kitathalla@lemy.lol 1 points 4 weeks ago

That's always how it starts...

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 weeks ago

well actually I've taken to calling it "GNU+Linux"

[-] Jumuta@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 weeks ago

sucks to suck your grub bootloader calls it gnulinux

[-] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 2 points 4 weeks ago

Shh, don't tell anyone.

[-] cqst@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 weeks ago

Debian GNU/Linux has been called Debian GNU/Linux since at least 1997 https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1997/msg00013.html

[-] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 weeks ago

It's already started.
