It's also entirely un-Googleable. Searching "CoreOS" would return you stuff only about CoreOS. Searching "container linux" will return you tons of other unrelated results, if you don't get carpel tunnel by the time you even finish typing it.
- tyingq 10y agoFor me, at least, it's returning mostly links about LXC, which seems appropriate. As you mention, probably not good for the CoreOS brand.

- mandelbulb 10y agoThat would be a good point as a question but as an idea it's naive. Unless they increase their popularity by several times they never displace any of the current top search results.
