I actually had tried a few Linuxen in the past 30 years, and while I still have a soft spot for Gentoo and Void (edit: I love how everyone just ignores this part…), I noticed that Linux distributions have deeply fallen for over-engineering recently, making them not notably better than Windows anymore. Also, migrating from one US product to another makes limited sense to me.
Yes, I think so. But I’m always open to constructive feedback: What kind of product do you think an operating system kernel is, whose development is driven by a US citizen (Linus Torvalds) under the patronage of a US foundation (Linux Foundation) and with significant involvement of several US companies (Red Hat, Microsoft, NSA) and is usually delivered with a whole host of software from US organisations (foremost: GNU), if not a US product?
Yes, of course, Linux has developers from all sorts of countries. But then, so do Windows and macOS.
However, as I wrote below:
I think that the first part of my comment was the more relevant part.
the us gov’t forced the linux kernel group to kick out its russian contributors that us gov’t considered problematic and it will happen again as more people try to contribute to linux and the us gov’t approve of them either.
You skipped my question. Let me repeat it: What kind of product do you think an operating system kernel is, whose development is driven by a US citizen (Linus Torvalds) under the patronage of a US foundation (Linux Foundation) and with significant involvement of several US companies (Red Hat, Microsoft, NSA) and is usually delivered with a whole host of software from US organisations (foremost: GNU), if not a US product?
That’s like saying you don’t like American cheese, so you won’t drive American cars. If you reduce operating systems to a handful of arbitrary traits this way, you may as well roll the dice and pick based on that.
I have no idea who that dude is. I won’t follow his example.
Any reasons you don’t want to try? Just curious.
I think they mean they already use linux. Or Unix.
Unix.

You think Linux is an American product?

Microsoft and Apple are subject to US authority. Linux is not.

How exactly are the US-based stewards of Linux development not subject to US authority?
How are they?
