RISC-V entails also breaking off from the US operating system hegemony. Chinese tech firms are already using RISC-V in production servers but consumer-facing personal computers with RISC-V would require building your entire OS from scratch outside of these yank companies or focus on the mobile space solely (something like HarmonyOS)
I would really like for China to invest in KDE/GNOME and start building out that support for the entire world rather than go their own way with a domestic solution.
i need a chinese version of that stallman copypasta, yesterday
我想插一句。你所说的 Linux 实际上是 GNU/Linux，或者我最近开始称之为 GNU 加 Linux。Linux 本身并不是一个操作系统，而是由 GNU corelibs、shell utilities 和重要的系统组件组成的、功能完善的 GNU 系统的另一个自由组件，这些组件构成了 POSIX 所定义的完整操作系统。
许多计算机用户每天都在运行经过修改的 GNU 系统，却没有意识到这一点。一个奇特的现象是，今天广泛使用的 GNU 版本通常被称为 Linux，而它的许多用户并不知道它基本上就是由 GNU 项目开发的 GNU 系统。
确实有一种 Linux，这些人正在使用它，但它只是他们使用的系统的一部分。Linux 是内核：系统中为你运行的其他程序分配机器资源的程序。内核是操作系统的重要组成部分，但它本身并无用处；它只能在完整的操作系统中发挥作用。Linux 通常与 GNU 操作系统结合使用：整个系统基本上就是添加了 Linux 的 GNU，或 GNU/Linux。所有所谓的 Linux 发行版实际上都是 GNU/Linux 的发行版！
