Why do we need separate Linux Distros, anyway?
Why cant they all just unite and make 1 good distro instead of all these useless ones?
>>
Because philosophies and differences you retard.
>>
Because you get what you pay for. In this case a handout OS created by autistic programmers living in their parent's basement.

Canonical tried to get programmers together to make a Linux distro worth a shit but in the end failed due to lack of money and programmers.
>>
Canonical tried it. Dumbass retards refused it.

No, it was mostly just a lack of funding and programmers. Canonical had the right idea but not the resources. Though in the end freetards opposed canonical so that didn't help either.

redhat tried it with LSB and freedesktop.org with mixed results, canonical did the opposite and wrote their own everything

Unix philosophy.

Don't try to do a bunch of things and be OK at all of them (Windows), do one thing and be great at it. This is why there are so many single purpose distros like Kali.

This isn't like democrats and republicans, Linux is more like a bunch of shithole tribes in Africa

Linux is a kernel that OSes are built on. Its also arguably the best kernel and supports most devices.

It doesn't matter and that wouldn't be better. What the actual fuck is wrong with you and everyone else who says this?

Kind of ironic. Advocates for freedom somewhat restricting freedom.
