Edit: Apologies for including TempleOS! I figured that including Temple OS would be a good nod to Terrys work in a video like this but can see how it does the opposite effect! Decided to cut the end out completely for those confused on why it's not there.
Then why disrespect him? Seriously... To everyone else, terry gave us a lot of reasons to think poorly of him and it is fine if you do. But acting like you want to have him remembered while downplaying his achievements and not even mentioning his name? Wtf are you doing? Not even the name of the os is written correctly...
@@tartas1995 Disrespect? Outside of my error on spelling the name on the graphic wrong (honest mistake), what could be considered disrespectful? You might be interpreting this list as a "tier list" of some sorts when it's not that, it's a brief exploration of the levels of obscurity within each area of Linux distros. I only added Temple OS at the end as a nod to the project. "These distros are so insane they transcend reality". Is all I said.
I literally dismiss everything a person has to say the second they can’t be bothered to pronounce things correctly. I’m sorry, but if you’re a RU-vidr making videos on Linux distros and you can’t be bothered to learn how to pronounce the things you’re claiming to have any level of experience or expertise on, you’re not taking your work seriously and people shouldn’t be taking you seriously either.
The whole redhat family is totally left out. This is what happens when you know linux only by hype. A lot of servers run RHEL and CentOS and a lot of Fedora users as well.
there are wayy too many distros, he cant do all of them in one short edit: the video is 50 seconds long, so yes he could list even more distros some are Mint, Pop!_OS, MX Linux, Elementary OS, Zorin, RHEL, Fedora, CentOS, Mageia, Alma, OpenSUSE and EndeavourOS
@@jackdavenport5011 and the thousand other distros he "forgot" to mention in a 1 min video... And anyway CentOS is discontinued and hasn't released anything for about 2 years now... So people really shouldn't be still using it
Eh it’d be okay if he didn’t forget about RHEL being at the top with Debian. Maybe drop Ubuntu down and add fedora to the second layer. Also TempleOS being taken off too.
@@CodingWithLewisif you knew and you wanted to name terry then fucking name him and acknowledge his work. Terry was a flawed person and I am not saying praise him, but fucking hell if you want to acknowledge him, acknowledge him.
@@guywithagopro73 because it is deeply disrespectful to claim that you "had to" include a very ill man on your list, while disrespecting him by playing down his achievements. Seriously call that man a racist and insane, and I have no issue with it because he was. But acting like you wanted to tribute him while downplaying his achievements and not bothering to even mention anything about it beyond that. So rude.
@@liqwis9598 not sure why you’re asking in here, but Linux was -based on- _inspired by_ UNIX. I like The Linux Experiment: How Linux Killed UNIX for more explanation, TYJ good video.
@@WilburJaywright If by "based on Unix" you mean it was heavily inspired by Unix and was written as a replacement/clone of Unix, then yes, but Linus wrote the Linux kernel himself specifically because he couldn't afford Unix, which is proprietary. If you mean "based on Unix" the same way Ubuntu is based on Debian, or the PS3 is based on BSD, then no. Linux does not contain Unix code.
Fun fact: "Ubuntu" is a Zulu word meaning "humanity" and it's pronounced "oo-boon-too". Source: my wife is from 🇿🇦. She's Tswana and Sotho, but grew up around enough Zulus to know quite a bit of the language.
The word comes from Bantu people. Bantu means humanity. I am a kikuyu, a tribe settled in Kenya and part of Bantu which Zulu is also Bantu. And yes that definition is true.
You forgot NixOS, it deserves it's own separate layer, it is more difficult than Arch but when it is configured and learnt then it is the best thing, I am using it since a long time
@@MsAdam09yeah, but he named some irrelevant ones and left out some distros that are way more relevant, like Fedora. To leave Fedora out is like letting Ubuntu out.
@@felipe.raposo fedora is nowhere near as popular as Ubuntu. I just checked online most popular Linux distros 2024. Ubuntu has a 38% market share, Debian has a 14% share and fedora has a 0.2% share.... The lower ones in the video are meant to be obscure as that is the point of the video showing some of the more popular, some in the middle and some obscure
Red Star OS gives me a sensation of Soviet retro futurism, people are scared of it because it's from north Korea but this OS is very impressive for something made in the 90's, though they didn't changed anything since them or the newer version still didn't leaked out, imagine north Korea uses arch btw
idk but i tried fedora, and wine didn't run (gaming essential) so i quit instantly, probably there are way more similar cases, don't get me wrong i had an AMD gpu, prob the best case for linux. also even if there is proton there are things that don't run with it but run with wine
@@sheepriderkiller1181 If you run steam, they have a compatibility layer now that runs pretty much all their games natively. Runs just fine in fedora. Haven't come across a game that didn't work yet.
@@sheepriderkiller1181 Use nobara os, it is an OS made for gamers based kn fedora. It has all the drivers and software you need for gaming pre installed (wine, steam, play on Linux, etc)
I just moved from windows 10 straight to ubuntu, i gonna be honest i almost got locked outta my wifi because i tried to use a wifi 6e adapter, however i managed to get an older one i had and to be honest, i love it. It is so much better than windows and i love the shell system.
I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!
TempleOS isn’t a Linux distro, Terry wrote the whole OS including the kernel and software from scratch. You could’ve made an OS iceberg rather than just Linux if you wanted to include it
Bedrock is quite differents from other distros In fact it's a metadistro installed on a normal Linux (beware with stateless one like Silverblue) and allow you basically to "combine" distro You can have Gentoo init system, Arch package manager, a DE installed from Fedora, etc And it's quite easy to setup Gobo is quite a dead distro
Can't believe you missed the one at the very top: Fedora. That's allegedly used by Linus Torvalds on his computer to do all the Linux kernel work and it's my favourite too!
@@escapetherace1943 YES i swear LMDE is the best i have ever seen (for new users). BUT, once you learn how to install non-free, linux-firmware, nvidia-drivers, flatpak, etc. Debian rapidly becomes THE N.1 🥇
"Ubuntu, Debian, these flavors of linux are installed on basically every single server". Yeah, that's why Ubuntu/Debian Certified Engineers are in such great demand.
I can’t believe this! Mint is supposed to be the best Linux distro, but this ice barge (probably referring to Manjaro) claims otherwise. They’re wrong! Manjaro can’t be more popular than Mint. They need to update their information
Solus is rolling release and very stable! Solus XFCE is in Beta but already faster and more stable than Windows 11 on a €200 HP laptop which became super slow! Solus also has Budgie, Gnome and KDE Plasma spins 👍
Arch is in the tier that still has an installation screen??? I mean the binaries come pre compiled but it's still annoying to set up if you don't know how (in which case rtfm). Also i don't get the point why it's an "iceberg" don't things usually get more obscure the lower down you go? I feel like kali is more obscure than a lot of others and the tiering doesn't make perfect sense either.
why is NixOS missing from the iceberg? is it too obscure for you to know about it or did you think that it was already sufficiently covered by the other examples despite being very unique and more different from ubuntu than most of the examples except stuff like LFS and bedrock linux
somehow you forgot redhat and Suse, two of the most used an trusted linuxes in business or any of the distributions based on them. Good on you for including LFS.
I haven't sorted by new yet, but I'm bracing myself for all the people complaining that NixOS isn't on the iceberg. That, and any of the corporate enterprise distros (RHEL, SLE, Oracle, etc.) and their community variants (Fedora, OpenSUSE, etc.), at my school a ton of people's first interaction with Linux are the RHEL workstations available in the computer labs. As well as any non-systemd and non-glibc distros apart from Gentoo, such as Artix or Void, or the hardline FOSS distros like Parabola. And maybe there's some people upset that you didn't signal yourself as being in the know by putting emacs on the list as well.
