That's On Me, I Set the Bar Too Low

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 13 points 4 weeks ago

Absolutely disgusted how you set the pic on the same line

[-] DragonsInARoom@lemmy.world 45 points 4 weeks ago

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.

Man, this infographic is like, EXACTLY why people are scared of Linux, lol.

It has a lot of good info but it's just so overloaded. Can't decide what story it wants to tell so it tells like 7 of them.

[-] Rooty@lemmy.world 9 points 4 weeks ago

It reminds me of conspiracy charts that gets posted on Facebook by your aunt.

[-] Statick@programming.dev 8 points 4 weeks ago

I'm a Linux user and that infographic scares me

[-] Petter1@lemm.ee 4 points 4 weeks ago

I love it, and I don’t even use dabian based distros 🤣

Okay okay, we only needed 10.

Edit: Though Ubuntu falls under Debian, so that's redundant.

[-] introvertcatto@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 month ago

Just say Linux and you covered most / many

[-] umbraroze@lemmy.world 11 points 4 weeks ago

Long ago, I used Debian on my main PC but decided to go with Ubuntu on the laptop because it was easy to set up.

Later I switched to Debian on the laptop, too, because ultimately I felt Ubuntu was just Debian with extra steps.

[-] Kanda@reddthat.com 10 points 4 weeks ago

Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Ubuntu MATE, Ubuntu Budgie, Ubuntu Cinnamon, Edubuntu, Ubuntu Studio, Ubuntu Unity

[-] rowanthorpe@lemmy.ml 5 points 4 weeks ago

There are only three. Debian-based, Redhat/Fedora-based, and then the rest nobody cares about...

[-] gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Here's a picture of the linux distro family tree:

There's Debian, the distro.

There's Redhat/Fedora, which is commercial,

there's gentoo, where on installation, everything is compiled from source.

There is slackware, mostly for historical purposes (it was the first distro),

there's arch for ~~people who want to feel they're better than others~~ tinkerers,,

there is openSUSE, which is like redhat but german.

[-] SwingingTheLamp@midwest.social 3 points 4 weeks ago

Slackware is the oldest distribution which is still active. I remember Yggdrasil came before it, and I'm looking it up, I see that Slackware was based on the earlier SLS.

Arch-based is only going to become more of a thing thanks to SteamOS.

Arch, Manjaro, KDE Neon, Lindows (the one that was getting sued by macrohard in the past), Mocachino (not added to DW yet but is on their list of ones needing approval or something/LFS based distro), MX Linux, Sparky, Mint, Gentoo, and Fedora were the first ones that popped into my head almost immediately.

So I knew about HML for a while, but today is the first time I learned that the creator also made a song.

The world has never before and never will again see such talent.

I've spent a lot of time on the toilet looking at this.
