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.

I even ask myself if ignoring them and leaving them to the irrelevance they deserve would be a better move than giving them the free "advertising" and probably even boosting their ego.
I'm right there with you. If anyone asks me about it, my response is "imagine that Arch Linux and OpenAI were going to have a child, but they were both doing too many drugs and alcohol, smoking 3 packs of camels per day each and lived near a garbage burning field in a Saharan country, Omarchy is the material resulting from that miscarriage".
There's just too many good Linux distros out there for me to even entertain the idea of ever giving that shit a chance.
"That sounds...dramatic! I may have to check it out, just for the train wreck!"
"Pre-configured Arch with agentic AI baked in."
I would agree if they did not have that much oil money backing them this kinda needs to be talked about imo
