Let the awkward unwieldy term die please?

Just call it Linux

simple, short, clear

GNU is even shorter.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re 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. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

That graph represents how normalfags get progressively into using GNU/Linux distributions...

If you want to be like the masses go to leddit or faceberg, where like-minded people such as yourself will be able to communicate more easily.

Windows – downhill
Mac os – strong downhill
microsoft – downhill
Apple – almost no interest with little major spikes
gay porn – pic
Lmao my sides.

>>59892315
the graph is raw numbers, not percentage of total or anything comparable
consider how many internet users grew in almost two decades of those data
that puts it even in worse situation

its just dying

GNU is failing because theres no real leadership or sense of specific direction
or a specific single core project with some progress

it was fun and all at the start in the 80s and 90s I guess
But now? Its like feminism 3rd wave
feminism was real deal when the objective was property rights, voting, equal opportunity
then the first 2 waves ended and theres unspecific 3rd wave all over the place
GNU is similar with trying to recruit in to ideology, social commentary, politics rather than technology

>>59892382
that just means no new users who are interested
unpluged gnufags at their twilight numbers slowly dying out

Kys, Google shows a decline for _all_ technical search terms because the Internet is filled with low-IQers searching for Justin Bieber and Miley Cirus. End of story.

You can't just call it gnu because there are distributions of GNU without Linux (Debian GNU/Hurd). There are also distributions of Linux without GNU (Alpine, busybox etc).
