okay faggots, show me a profitable linux only software that isn't the fucking kernel or related to software development.
by profitable I don't mean just one guy being able to live, I mean, something comparable to industry standart windows software.
I know you faggots keeps showing red hat like fucking sheeps to show open source is profitable without understanding I can't do shit with just the kernel.
It seems any software that isn't related to CS in linux is made by amateurs working in free time.

Got it. You have no idea what you're talking about. Carry on.
>>54152201
I'd simply 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 part 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 simply 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.
B2B software uses a lot of Linux.

Are you even trying?
You asked for profitable software. MySQL was sold to Oracle for a very large sum, RedHat was the first Linux vendor to offer an IPO and maintain it (though they've gone to shit as a company, I hear), ZenOSS (and Nagios) are network monitoring systems, and Untangle is network management / firewall suite.
Then there is VMWare. The bare metal hypervisor is a custom Linux build.
As for what YOU do with any of these things, fuck if I care. That wasn't the question.
>>54153783
>what am I supposed to do with the kernel and a windows manager?
Have tons of neat devices like routers and shit that actually fucking work. If you aren't capable of seeing how stuff like, you know, having an internet, is useful to end users you should probably go and kill yourself. Jesus christ talking to you is like talking to a brick wall.

Listen, brother.
We, software engineers, computer scientists, computer hobbyists don't give a flying fuck about what OS you use.
We use linux based OSs because it's fast, efficient and provides us with all the tools we need to do our jobs. Windows, on the other hand is slow as f***, tries to control your usage of the computer (automatically turning on antivirus shit, automatically doing shit you didn't ask for jn general), among other stupid shit.
If you can't find a use for linux, don't use it.
I literally don't even have to think about this, because to me it's clear that linux is almost always the way to go.

1. Who are you quoting?
2. GNU Radio/Universal Software Radio Peripheral
3. adding a linux only requirement is retarded. The majority of linux software is open source. It can be compiled for just about anything. Even the defacto standard compiler for linux, gcc, has been ported to windows. Once you compile your compiler for another platform the set of linux only software that isn't the kernel gets really small.

>>54154938

This isn't even true, and if it were true it wouldn't matter because Android would still have lots of profitable software. You are moving the goal posts.

>You are moving the goal posts.
Read the OP-
>linux only software
If it is available on iOS, it's not Linux-only. Who here is trying to move the goalposts?
>>54155028
Most Android apps are original, not iOS ports, so your argument isn't true. Furthermore, there are more Android to iOS ports than iOS to Android ports, so who cares.
>>54154987
Please present your passport before moving the goal posts any further.
>>54154987
Probably none. Who the fuck develops primarily for Linux? Anyone intelligent enough to use Linux is intelligent enough to write mostly platform independent code. For example Minecraft is developed for x86/x64 Windows/Linux/Solaris/Mac (universal Java code + natives for every listed OS) and probably satisfies all your restrictions
*it doesnt satisfy FOSS, but you get the idea, its platform independent.
>>54154987
>Happy, happy now that I give you the exact question that covers all bases with your wikipedia definitions?
Yes very happy. Getting you to give a more rigorous definition let's every see how ridiculous the requirements are. For example Ubuntu is ruled out by the stock market. Hell as far as I know only companies are valued by the stock market. Where can I buy shares of Winrar? I'm betting they'll eventually find a way to convince users to purchase a license.
Saying that drivers aren't for people who are non-technical is ridiculous because the whole reason drivers exist is to allow people to use hardware without having a deep technical understanding of the hardware.
Ruling out technical people when one of the primary benefits of FOSS is that you can view and modify the source is silly. That's like saying find an airplane company that doesn't sell airplanes designed to be used by pilots.

And most Android apps suck. The successful ones are iOS ports. Just check the Top 100. If you want to save the work of comparing each app in both stores, simply look for the app Icon. If it is square with round corners, that's an iOS app icon.
>>54155207
Clarifying what he meant in the first place is not moving the goal posts.
