Look Richard no matter how many times you post this, no-one is going to start calling it GNU/Linux.
In fact, systemd is arguable a more important component covering more aspects of system function in a lot of distributions: home mounting, boot process, logging, init, cron... I'm going to start calling it systemd/Linux, just to mess with Stallman.
Uh no, it's not. GNU has been integral to the GNU/Linux project for years. Without GCC, coreutils, glibc, there would be no linux distributions. Systemd has not played the same role.
But now we have systemd so GNU can get fucked, bitch.
systemd is an init system and just has not played the same role in the development of GNU/Linux distributions like GNU has. before systemd there was sysvinit, and there are number of alternate init systems. It's not about system functionality that we name operating systems.
You're an init system and just has not played the same role in the development of GNU/Linux distributions like GNU has.
Still tho, gnu can suck my cock
If it could I'm sure a lot more people would be willing to call it GNU/Linux.
Chimera Linux, Linux with the BSD user-space. No GNU.
No systemd, either, so double-bonus.
It's proprietary so, no thanks.
Proprietary? Wherever did you get that idea?
Debian GNU/Linux has been called Debian GNU/Linux since at least 1997 https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1997/msg00013.html
well actually I've taken to calling it "GNU+Linux"
People actually do call it gnu/linux semi-often, dunno why.
I almost always do it facetiously and for meme purposes.
That's always how it starts...
sucks to suck your grub bootloader calls it gnulinux
Shh, don't tell anyone.
I ise systemd-boot
It's already started.
