From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I get the aspect that usage of open source projects don’t necessarily benefit their dev (for better or worse), but at the end of the day promotion of a software is still promotion of its dev (even if to a much smaller degree) and consequently their reach. I can understand why people like the op would have issues with it being actively recommended.
