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.

How vain must he be to name an OS after himself.
At least call it LunOS or something. See Debian, which is Deb+Ian, but it at least sounds good and has a sweet backstory. LCOS sounds like an illness (PCOS, anyone?).
I liked the guy way back when but some day he just seemed to become a bit crazy. Made his content unwatchable. What narcissism and trauma does to people...
I sincerely hope he one day gets treatment for his trauma which probably caused the shift in personality, and I hope Bryan will be a healthier and better person one day.
That said, why try an OS by one guy which doesn't even offer anything above what is already on the market. At least be creative and innovative...
I met him in person around 2014-2015 and I have to agree. I use to watch his old stuff but something changed and I stopped
Yeah I think it was around Covid where he got weird. Sad to see...
