A crime against humanity is what it is.

There obv is such a thing as a too low effort meme.

To be fair, none of this would have happened without Stallman, and I understand the criticism. But let’s remember, there are things that he did that were very positive for computing. If it weren’t for Stallman it is doubtful that we would have a free operating system to this day.

If Stallman had his way, the entire Linux ecosystem would be in the same state as GNU Hurd. His vision, work, and activism in the days of Unix was a massive benefit to free software at large, probably forever. Now he thinks Debian isn’t free enough because it offers an optional nonfree repository.

The criticism is pretty ridiculous. I can’t stand Stallman’s prescriptivist takes on language, but he was and is always right about the naming. I remember the people who insisted that it’s because the kernel was the most important part immediately called it Android and not Linux, then made a bunch of excuses.

Just be honest and don’t hide behind “I don’t use GNU so there!” kind of obnoxious stupidity. We say Linux because it stuck, not because the kernel is more important. Saying GNU or GNU/Linux or whatever was always a reasonable request that people rejected because they were either just too used to Linux or were actively worthless scumbag dumbfucks.

I see it the same way you might give a loved one an occasional ribbing for something they have an ongoing hangup about, or even once yelled about several years ago.

It sucks for him and his recognition that “Linux” is such a good name that people use it for the entire OS. But the dude is basically still a hero. Anybody who helped really get the FOSS/GNU/Linux movement going is. We have a huge amount of the tech world that runs so well on free and open software, plus it’s well beyond the critical mass where it isn’t going anywhere and will be an option permanently (barring some event that also, you know, ends civilization).

  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can’t quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
