Fun fact: Linus Torvalds originally named his fledgling OS as “Freax”, but it was an FTP site admin who came up with “Linux” and the rest is history. So perhaps the opportunity is not completely missed…
- davisr 2y agoNo he didn't. "I called it Linux originally as a working name. That was just because "Linus" and the X has to be there--it's UNIX, it's like, a law--and what happened was that I initially thought that I can't call it "Linux" publicly because it's just too egotistical. That was before I had a big ego." https://yewtu.be/watch?v=kZlOCHYu1Vk https://yewtu.be/watch?v=kZlOCHYu1Vk
