   @arcana @nemesis @sam @waifu @mischievoustomato normies will not care that it's "libre" but they will care that it's enshittification resistant. You're not going to wake up to git showing you ads.

     @RustyCrab @arcana @nemesis @sam @waifu @mischievoustomato There is the slim possibility of ads being added to git, as the license is GPLv2-only and is only ever enforced against freedom.

     But it's not. Linux devs have a fetish with reinventing the wheel every ~5 years. Things are worse than they've been 10 years ago.

     Linux enshittification exists. The Windows user will put up with the start menu being like this if they can run games. Wanna know what MS was doing during the 9x era? Coding in workarounds if it detected certain games to make it work.
     
     Linux? lol, lmao.

     Not even once. Whenever they break ABI for something major, they just go: "See, the standard actually doesn't mention the type of X, therefore this is fine."

     @phnt @PurpCat @RustyCrab @arcana @nemesis @sam @waifu @mischievoustomato What glibc does was 100% based and GNUpilled.
     
     glibc does indeed remain forward ABI-compatible.
     
     The elf sections change didn't break a single free program - all it did was trigger the digital handcuffs on proprietary malware.
     
     
     It's up to the distro to set the elf sections that the programs expect and not glibc regardless.

     @phnt @PurpCat @RustyCrab @arcana @nemesis @sam @waifu @mischievoustomato There is no need for a pillar - software doesn't care what way you build it - you can build it upside down or sideways just fine, as it doesn't have to worry about gravity.
     
     The GNUspace wasn't broken - rather GNUspace was enhanced, as elf binaries shrunk in size now that they no longer contain a useless elf section by default (instead the finest GNU section that supplies the needed information and more are there).
     
     It is GNU's duty to break proprietary software while enhancing GNUspace and it should do it more often.

     @PurpCat @RustyCrab @arcana @nemesis @phnt @sam @waifu @mischievoustomato The kernel, Linux's API has in fact been more stable than win32's API - heck even its ABI has barely changed.
     
     DT_GNU_HASH is a FEATURE NOT A BUG and is not an API either - as no GNU program or any other free software program was broken by the change.
     
     GNU would have reached perfection if proprietary software won't even run and glibc wonderfully worked towards such perfection.

     @Suiseiseki @RustyCrab @arcana @nemesis @phnt @sam @waifu @mischievoustomato A Windows game from 2006-7 for example will "just werk" on Wine and the same goes with a game from a few years before or after.
     
     On Linux, you need to do fun stuff like install 32-bit libraries, load OSS somehow, and worry about shit breaking from some update that nobody noticed. Then you'll actually see an unironic forum post saying to run the Windows version in Wine.

     @PurpCat @RustyCrab @arcana @nemesis @phnt @sam @waifu @mischievoustomato On GNU/Linux-libre, you just compile the source code of the free software and it runs.
     
     (Most source code from 2006 & 2007 will compile, although some software have an incorrect configure.in file, which needs to be corrected to work with the latest autotools).

     SKILL ISSUE.
     
     On Gentoo-libre, updating glibc certainly doesn't require recompiling half the system.

     I don't need to regression test, as the GNU software just works.

     We'll see about that. Downloading coretutils 6.9 from 2007 right now. :)

     @rain >post more about what your run, why you run it
     I like xfce4 as it tends to actually work and the settings menu is somewhat convenient for selecting whether the touchpad on a laptop is tap to click, or what closing the lid does.
     
     i3 tends to actually work too, although it requires additional configuration (which I do for computers that I use more).
     
     >and maybe features you would enjoy having that you don't already.
     I like windows being fullscreened automatically, which i3 offers and can be offered on xfce4 via devilspie2.
     
     Every time I want more, I just look at the software list on; https://www.gnu.org/software/ and find another great program that I was missing.

     I do wish you would post more about what your run, why you run it (aside from it being free software), and maybe features you would enjoy having that you don't already.
     
     Like fully aware it is all GNU Free software but there are still different options and preferences in that space. I think it would be very good insight.
     
     (Sorry to interrupt your GNU posting just sharing my two cents :blobsmile: )

     @phnt @PurpCat @RustyCrab @arcana @nemesis @sam @waifu @mischievoustomato I was obviously referring to updating to later versions, not downloading old versions and trying to compile them.
     
     Yes, ancient versions of large programs do need to have some corrections made to the source with new versions of gcc.

     @phnt @PurpCat @RustyCrab @arcana @mischievoustomato @nemesis @sam @waifu You have the freedom to grab an ancient gcc version from 2007 and bootstrap an ancient toolchain and it will compile the old version without requiring correction of errors in the source code.

     Large programs can be made to compile as well with the latest gcc - it just takes a few edits and I haven't had any issues doing so.

     @Suiseiseki @PurpCat @RustyCrab @arcana @nemesis @sam @waifu @mischievoustomato This won't build on old gcc, because this is a header issue. Somewhere in the last almost 20 years, the function changed arguments.
     
     I even went for a middle ground where it wasn't something dead simple like GNU hello, but also definitely not compilable like binutils or gcc. gcc from 20 years ago has zero chance of getting compiled with modern gcc without a bunch of patching.

     I want people to care about freedom and GNU is the way.
     
     GNU works great on my machine and it's perfectly usable, thus I detect a skill issue.

     My best guess is that you mean "add all the proprietary software" and my answer is never.
     
     Stay on losedows and enjoy serving the proprietary master.

     @branman65 @PurpCat @RustyCrab @arcana @nemesis @phnt @sam @waifu @mischievoustomato GNU/JIHAD AGAINST "FOSS".
     
     FREE SOFTWARE!!!!!
     https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html
     https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/floss-and-foss.html
     
     
     The kernel, Linux is indeed proprietary software - yes, despite being the poster child of "open source", it isn't even completely (or even 50%) source-available!
     
     Part of the Linux project is a massive collection of proprietary software derivative works that denies the users freedom known as "linux-firmware" (there are also a handful of free programs, with source code, under GPLv2-compatible terms).
     
     If you want freedom, you need to use GNU Linux-libre; https://gnu.org/software/linux-libre

     @Yoruka @PurpCat @RustyCrab @arcana @nemesis @phnt @sam @waifu @mischievoustomato If you actually ran software that only uses the SYSCALLs of the kernel, Linux, you will have no problems running it, as Linux's SYSCALL ABI has barely changed for 30 years.
     
     If you actually ran software on GNU, that was to be expected, as there has been a lot of work done to make free software forwards compatible.
