Fragmentation is good! Old meme I posted on that site.

MS so jealous that their biggest innovation in the last decade was … to put Linux in Windows.
That and ads in the start menu.
Context, please? Not trying to discredit, I’m just dumb
Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) which lets you basically run linux kernel along side the windows kernel which lets you do a lot of cool stuff like containers, linux apps, whole DEs, etc.
It was pretty cool for like 5 minutes until people realized that keeping windows around was kind of pointless and we should just be running pure linux lol.
It’s still a good feature, but it just gives you a direct comparison of linux vs windows which tends to outshine windows.
What was weird was one of my friends who is “baffled by my choice of Linux” let me know about this subsystem and said “hey, look! There’s no reason to use Linux again!”
Why would it be pointless to keep Windows when it is capable of running (al be it slowly) Linux software?
It is like saying Linux is pointless because of Wine.
It was pointless to keep windows at all. Pure linux is much cooler and running it inside windows was pointless. Unlike wine which runs windows programs inside linux which is big deal
it’s one of those niche developer tools that ends up highlighting how fucking appalling windows is for developers .
They’re talking about Windows Subsystem for Linux. Basically reverse WINE.
That was WSL1. WSL2 is just a vm: https://www.devtopics.com/wsl1-vs-wsl2-a-comparison-and-guide/

I like how there are 4 blue A’s and there all a different Distro
For sure there are more!
That’s mostly fluff though. Like you show, the core is either Linux or bsd and gnu, and then you have a handful of families.
That’s not fragmentation, that’s freedom.
And compatibility is a big factor too. Because of gnu and posix basically, almost anything that works on one distro will work on another.
Imagine if each distro was completely locked from anything on another one. That would be fragmentation, and we wouldn’t be talking about it, because it would be shit.

one of the best anime i ever watched. might even start reading the manga.

My distro didn’t make the cut. That meme is just the tip of the iceberg…
Let me guess: Hannah Montana?
That one is my side OS 😆 . My main is Nitrux.
What is the logo to the left of Tux and BSD?
Edit: I think it’s GNU?
I’d just like to interject for a moment…
What you’re referring to as Linux is in fact GNU/Linux or, as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU+Linux
GNU
the monopoly has been crumbling for years. high time for devs to develop with linux in mind.
Horrible post
I cringe every time when someone compares a single Windows version to a whole distribution, and some of them even have more versions than Windows.
I wish there was more variety.
You basically have BSD and Linux and in the Linux space
{glibc/musl systemd/openrc/runit PKGBUILD,ebuild,deb,rpm}which seems like a lot but it’s the really niche stuff that’s fun to pull apart and play with.Guys, we’re sexualizing anime girls ironically, right? Right, guys? Guys?
Variety is the spice of life.
Man of culture I see
