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.

Honestly, it's about damn time.
These technical people should be ashamed it took them so long to adopt Linux.
This literally doubles (if not more) the workload to run these benchmarks, not to mention having to write new automation procedures and Steve just not being familiar with Linux at all, all for 2-3% (tops) of his audience.
Be glad that he is doing them in the future and don't be a demanding, entitled prick.
Yeah, that's the problem. Just like with LinusTechTips, these youtubers aren't half as knowledgeable as they'd like their audiences to believe.
They should be ashamed, and you should stop being being a simp.
Grow the fuck up.
You either don't watch Gamers Nexus videos or you watch them and genuinely don't understand enough to know how in-depth his tests go.
LTT is garbage "entertainment" though. I'll agree with that.
Let's put that in a way that isn't so off putting. It's the duty of those in the know help those who are not when possible.
No it’s not. There is no duty to anyone. Go to a library or book store and read what you want to learn.
Ah, the RTFM argument. So you didn't go to school, did you? You picked up a book and just started educating yourself?

I did and after entering the field I had chosen after graduation, I quickly left. It wasn’t for me. What paid for school, however, was fixing computers, electronic word processors, and building and selling PC’s. Bought an Apollo system to learn Domain Aegis UNIX on and checked out every book on UNIX I could get my hands on. When Linux arrived, I got in at Linux 0.99pl13. I got a job and paid to continue my education. So yeah. When I started there wasn’t a community of enablers.
Save it for the publishers dawg just stop being so hostile and negative about something that’s genuinely a good thing.
