I think you mean GNU/Linux
Look Richard no matter how many times you post this, no-one is going to start calling it GNU/Linux.
It’s already started.
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.
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.
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.
Still tho, gnu can suck my cock
If it could I’m sure a lot more people would be willing to call it GNU/Linux.
You’re an init system and just has not played the same role in the development of GNU/Linux distributions like GNU has.
Chimera Linux, Linux with the BSD user-space. No GNU.
No systemd, either, so double-bonus.
It’s proprietary so, no thanks.
Proprietary? Wherever did you get that idea?
People actually do call it gnu/linux semi-often, dunno why.
I almost always do it facetiously and for meme purposes.
That’s always how it starts…
well actually I’ve taken to calling it “GNU+Linux”
Debian GNU/Linux has been called Debian GNU/Linux since at least 1997 https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1997/msg00013.html
sucks to suck your grub bootloader calls it gnulinux
Shh, don’t tell anyone.
Gods, now where on earth did we put that copy pasta…
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.
Ubuntu Lubuntu Xubuntu Kubuntu uwuntu Wubuntu Edubuntu Gendbuntu PopOs Mint
Those last two ruined the list smh
Let’s gooooo
Debian (+Devuan), Ubuntu (+Kubuntu, Lubuntu), Linux Mint, Zorin, KDE Neon, Kali, Parrot, Tails, Raspberry Pi OS
Fedora, RHEL, Nobara, Bazzite, Qubes
OpenSUSE
Arch (+Artix), Manjaro, Garuda, Endeavour, CachyOS, KDE Linux
Slackware
Gentoo, Funtoo
Isn’t “Raspberry Pi OS” called “Raspbian”?
That’s its old name, sometimes still circulating out of habit. Currently, it is officially called Raspberry Pi OS.
Just say debian and you already mentioned like 100 distros, that is the point of OP meme, lol
True :)
Probably the highest amount of derivatives, even if two-thirds are through Ubuntu lol
WSL, Mac OS, Richard Stallman, GNU, the cloud
Hanna Montana Linux
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.
Shine on you crazy diamond
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.
That’s On Me, I Set the Bar Too Low
Absolutely disgusted how you set the pic on the same line
Arch, Ubuntu, Mint, Kali… Honestly all I got.
Mint is based on Ubuntu and Kali/Ubuntu are based on Debian. That is kinda what the meme is about ;)
If you want to name them all, Red Hat, Debian, and Slackware where the OG popular distros that became the foundations of all the distros we have today. I ran them all back then.
Arch came somewhat later but is now an established independent distro serving as a base for many many others (Endeavour, Garuda, Manjaro, BlackArch, CachyOS, KDE Linux <not to confuse with Neon> off the top of my head)
Don’t forget Suse 🥲
Oh no, I haven’t forgotten SuSe. But it’s not an OG distro. It’s based off of Red Hat. Though I thought it was always a better version of Mandrake than Mandrake ever was. (I wonder what TexStar is doing these days…)
I’ve installed and used it several times over the years and thought it was a fine distro. I have never understood why it’s not more to the forefront with it’s rolling release. If you like RPM based distros, SuSe is one to check out for sure.
Umm, either wikipedia is wrong, or SUSE use went into the future:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux
Oooor,
you are talking complete bullshit 🤔

yeah…
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.
I’m a Linux user and that infographic scares me
I love it, and I don’t even use dabian based distros 🤣
It reminds me of conspiracy charts that gets posted on Facebook by your aunt.
I could just rattle off random words and they’re probably real distros somewhere
You could almost play the game: “Linux Distro or Weed Strain?”
Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Ubuntu MATE, Ubuntu Budgie, Ubuntu Cinnamon, Edubuntu, Ubuntu Studio, Ubuntu Unity
…which are all layers on Debian.
That’s the joke

These are the same picture
We also have it in Chinese
I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as…
The OS formerly known as Linux
Off the top of my head:
OpenSuSE, Gentoo, Arch, Debian, Mandrake, Damn Small Linux, Puppy Linux, Backtrack Linux, Slackware, CentOS
Some of these have changed names or stopped being supported, unfortunately.
You’ve named all the good ones. We should hang out.
