My god, they had scrolling window managers back in the day!

This checks out. But what I struggle with is the awkward dance around ending it somehow.
Do I just bounce or shop together?
What happens if I see them again in the store?
Do I need to acknowledge the re meeting?

I made that comment in slight jest. But anyway using non GNU OS still is consistent with my viewpoint that you don’t operate the kernel per se. The kernel sits at a layer below what the user operates.

As for the argument of apps being made for Linux, it is nothing more than just a semantic shortcut to the common ground between all these independent OS

I would also recommend lemmy. It’s more established, has a strong community footing. And above all, it seems to be well written (in terms of code) and has tons of clients (UIs/apps). And like the other comment says, I’m not convinced about the performance of piefed

Is it, though? I don’t know about you, but most (if not all) of my interactions with my computer are at levels above the kernel

Torvalds wrote the kernel, not the operating system. It’s a part of the GNU/Linux OS ;)

Oh god, oh fuck, this is like the dress again. It seems freaking golden to me

Wow, this was a treat to watch. Never would have imagined Brian Kernighan would be explaining shell pipeline to me in such a cosy setting
