Let's be honest, very little is "built-in" on Linux. What you guys are referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
- daoistmonk 2y agoi'd say fedora is a pretty complete packaged distro
- AlexErrant 2y agoYeah - I understand GP's point. It was just too good an opportunity to meme :)
- MadnessASAP 2y agoI use coreutils, fish, & LLVM what now Stallman?
- angra_mainyu 2y ago....and that's fine. We're not talking about the XNU kernel but the end-product OS that reaches users. A distro is the appropriate comparison in this scenario, and Pop_OS! or Ubuntu are about as easy as can be. EDIT: /facepalm, just realized the Stallman meme hehe
