Want to fuck the thread up? Just ask "What is the G.O.A.T. Distro?"

This is the only right answer.

Windows Subsystem for Linux 2

[–] aBundleOfFerrets@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

Not a distro. You can run Ubuntu and Arch on WSL (and many others)

To a higher degree than Windows, yes it is.

It’s a UNIX-like system. It’s not close enough to be linux imo

[–] mrbaby@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Yeah lots of unix-likes out there but it's not running the linux kernel so it's decidedly not linux. I was just trying to stir up shit in a shit stirring thread.

Now, to possibly stir up more shit: Its ancestry might even be closer to unix than linux itself since darwin was derived from nextstep/bsd whereas linux was a mix of minix and torvalds going "fuck this licensing shit i'll just make my own"

I will say, any time i've had to deal with a macos system i've appreciated being able to drop into a familiar shell. DOS commands drive me insane. dir is 50% longer than ls! Who has time for that!
