What would happen if all the Linux developers teamed up in a single distro?

Seems like a good idea but Linux kernel devs ARE already teamed up.

Now most userland softwares are independent projects except for GNOME softwares

>>55657626
Why would kernel developers care about userland software choices?

A murderfuck celebration where people would be sacrificed bi-daily by feminists to appease their period gods.
Linus would lead the Linux Terminator Front and would attempt to erradicate these creatures the best he could while remaking git to not allow feminist usage.
The kernel would suffer major restructurations removing whatever code was placed by the feminists.
And the Distro would be made by whoever was still alive therefore making it a cold hard to use yet very streamlined distro where only "Regular" men and women could use it.


TL;DR
There wouldn't be any distro made because factions inside the dev team would constantly fuck each over good.

>>55657626
there would be a huge fight, then they'd split up to make their own distros

the very concept of "consumer" linuxing is choice, making single distro (this is, set of choices) that would satisfy everyone is impossible

Thinking too small buddy, what if all corporations WORLDWIDE teamed up to make ONE SINGLE AMAZING PRODUCT. What would happen?

It eould be a corporate distro
like Fedora or Ubuntu

They would end up making at least one new distro for each developer, probably more.

Already done. Bedrock Linux. Google it. Shit is real.

We'd get another shitty UNIX knock off that has a million new forks of everything from every one of the other 1000 distros - all of them bugged to hell.

Just use actual UNIX, FreeBSD.

>>55659661
This. Except that last sentence.

>>55659661
Unix is terrible though. That's the whole reason Linux was made.

You'd get a ton of pajeets shitting on the streets and a handful of cucks trying to tell you how it's the definition of freedom.

They would end up with 100 different distros.

kernel developers making a desktop distribution?

that would be like getting a bunch of engineers to make a piece of artwork.

would have to give a bag of chemotherapy with the distro... you get the joke

it would have SystemD and Pulseaudio by default because Lennart Poettering is a good boy he dindu nuffin and if you don't like SystemD you are probably a womanizer warmonger, it's 2016, it's acceptable to use SystemD by defaukt with no option to opt out shitlord!

Nothing because nobody 'runs' Linux. There is no clear stated goal to keep all the fuckwits on track.

This is why Linux ALWAYS fails.

So, I can install Ubuntu's Unity?

free out of the box with loadable nonfree kernel modules and uncompiled version usable

Built in portage style compiler

Network based package manager

Stock version is minimal with a few tools only, available in nonfree and free

Cross compatible with any GNU-like enviroment, wether using plan9 and sysvinit or coreutils and systemd

Installer comes in netinstall, with a lot of configuration, minimal, or with your choice of DE
