    @waltercool @freetar @waifu I literally linked to the proprietary software in Linux and to the "open source definition" (noting to check requirement 2) - certainly not GNU links.

      @waltercool @freetar @waifu >Links to wikipedia.
      Wikipedia is known to be full of lies.

      Linux is the selected name of the Linux project, which was to develop a kernel and did little more than that.

      It's completely ludicrous and totally incorrect to refer to software that is not Linux, as "Linux", as no matter how popular an error is, that doesn't make it the reality.

      In no other OS has the whole OS been named after the name that was used to name the kernel.


      It's like getting a rose and calling it a pen - the rose will smell just as sweet, but people will proceed to try to write with the "pen" and get confused as hell.

      GNU only asks that you refer to GNU as GNU and Linux as Linux and when GNU is combined with Linux, to refer to it as; GNU/Linux, or GNU+Linux or GNU with Linux or LiGNUx or just GNU, as all of those would be correct names.

      @Suiseiseki @freetar @waifu I can go forever getting different definitions about Linux.

      Only GNU cult members believes Linux only means a kernel because they want recognition using a GNU/whatever

      @waltercool @freetar @waifu GNU predates Linux by years, therefore Linux is newspeak.

      You can run whatever proprietary coreutils, but I'll still be running GNU coreutils.

      @waltercool @freetar @waifu glibc is part of GNU, thus that would be redundant.

      The operating system is GNU. One of the kernels is Linux.

      Another is GNU Linux-libre, another is GNU Hurd.

      Linux is not an OS, as it does not *operate* on its own - a fact.


      If you want to refer to the OS, correctly that would be GNU.

      But we're not spiteful curs and refuse to credit Linux for Linux - unlike the spiteful curs that refuse to credit GNU for GNU - thus the OS is called GNU/Linux.

      @Suiseiseki @freetar @waifu You can call GNU/glibc or glibc. I don't care honestly.

      If you want to pay respects for GNU, feel free to do that, just don't expect others to follow or agree with you.

      The whole discussion here happens because you don't accept "Linux" as the Operative System, but instead you are claiming the Operative System is GNU/Linux.

      That doesn't make it correct or incorrect, that makes you forcing people to use the GNU/loser term

      @Suiseiseki @freetar @waifu There is not a single place on the GPL license forcing you to add the name GNU prefix.

      That's why 99.999% of Linux users don't care about adding the GNU prefix. Not even major companies doing business with Linux.

      So at the end, this is just like some dude asking you to respect their pronouns.

      Most GNU users who have never heard of GNU; https://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-users-never-heard-of-gnu.html and consider themselves "Linux users", as they have been told it's "just Linux" and it was all written by Linus with some help.

      Major companies have admitted that they think they'll make more money if they don't give credit to GNU, thus they omit credit.

      It's like some dude asking you not to call him "Miss", as he's not a Miss.

      @waltercool @freetar @waifu MIT released many licenses, some of them being proprietary.

      MIT expat is a terrible license, although it happens to be free.

      There are many BSD licenses, all terrible.

      @waltercool @freetar @waifu If people think the GPLv3 "is obscene", they haven't read the GPLv2.

      Imagine believing that the GPLv2 wasn't written to defend the users freedom.

      The GPLv3 gives *more permissions* and fixes many freedom bugs and is all around a much better license.

      So far so good by the way, thankfully the OpenSource community, including big tech, do very great software/libraries under MIT/Apache, and we contribute when possible,

      @waltercool @freetar @waifu No GNU license says "open" it in.

      If your project is a mere aggregate, you are not required to provide the source code.

      It's only if you've made a derivative work that the whole lot must be provided under compatible terms (which are a hell of a lot better than the typical proprietary license, which disallows doing so totally).

      There is no requirement in any GNU license to expose the customers business to the internet.

      B2B can respect the other business's freedoms and both can choose not to publish the software on the internet.

      @waltercool @freetar @waifu GNU/JIHAD AGAINST "FOSS"!!!!! FREE SOFTWARE.

      If you don't make a derivative work of a GPLv3-or-later library, there is nothing you need to do.

      You are not forced to shared your modifications to anyone - you can keep them private.

      It's unacceptable that you have the ability to take free software and turn it into proprietary software and attack people with it and the GPLv3-or-later rightfully says no.
