You say that as though everything above the Linux kernel isn't a nightmarish hodge-podge of software with interconnections ever increasing in complexity that creates conflicts so readily it needs third parties to carefully maintain specialized builds of each component to keep it all from blowing up.
- Shared404 6y agoThere's also the FL/OSS BSD's, although I don't know how viable they are for desktops outside of ThinkPad's.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 6y agoThey suffer from the same problem of requiring third party maintainers to keep software working.
- Shared404 6y agoI guess I've just given up on having a sole first party maintaining a sane system. It makes more sense to me to have something like Linux/BSD vs a first party system that falls apart worse while still being closed, despite being a consistent maintainer. Which I guess brings me back around to where you started.
