The free software movement is such an interesting sociological phenomenon, and pretty sure other things like it rarely work in reality, we just got lucky with the tech field I guess
I think it's more that corporations have benefitted hugely from it in the tech field specifically, so they haven't lobbied to make it impossible/impractical like in most other areas.
@@HeadsFullOfEyeballs They have, actually. But they didn't succeed. UEFI bootloader signing, a clever way for Lenovo to install an undeleteable Trojan horse on their laptops (alongside Intel's own Trusted Processing Module in the CPU itself), was designed to make installing anything other than Windows and Mac OS impossible. But too much of the industry depends on unpaid free software, mostly Minix (for the Intel TPM), but also Debian and, in the case of the US military and the NSA, RedHat Linux. So they had to allow that, leaving only Lenovo with any advantage from UEFI. A more striking example of how much the industry depends on free/libre software is OpenSSL, which encrypts practically all web traffic, including web Banking and inter-bank commerce. It is maintained by two hobbyists in their spare time. Linux hosts 90% of all services on the internet, from mail servers to web servers to SaaS like Google Drive, Azure, and AWS. The remaining 10% are FreeBSD. Linux also drives practically a of robotics. And of course Linux achieved world dominance fast with the smartphone market, which eclipses the desktop market. Today, Microsoft is the biggest contributor to the Linux kernel in lines of code. Their WindowsPhone can now run Android apps, and their desktop OS can run some docker images. Linux is just a small part of the free software movement. MacOS X is built almost exclusively from free software, from the L4 microkernel to the BSD userland to the web browser engine forked from KDE's KHTML, built with the free/libre open source LLVM compiler (that Microsoft is also using for Visual Studio). The network stack in Microsoft Windows is a fork of the NetBSD stack, and the implementation of the SMB protocol (network neighbourhood, domain controllers, shared printers, etc) has been replaced with the open source implementation because their proprietary one had become unmaintainable. They also migrated their code repository from their discontinued own product to git.
@@HeadsFullOfEyeballs sure sure, it's evil corporatyions' fault that free stuff is almost never good)) My country 70 years lived under soviet regime where lots of things were "free" and there were no corporations. The result? Well, here's old anecdote: "What doesn't fit in your ass and doesn't buzz? Soviet-made ass-buzzer".
When I was in college 20 years ago I decided to compile gentoo from a stage 1 tarball. It took my computer (a 32 bit athlon-b) something like 85 hours to compile my configuration (once I had figured out how to get it to stop segfaulting). I did essentially the same thing with my buddies 64 core dual socket xeon machine a few years ago (it's for 3d rendering). I can't even remember how much ram it has; the thing is absurd. It crushed compiling a full gentoo system from source in under three hours. Not sure how long it took exactly, because I started my script, we went to lunch and it was done when we got back. Unlike my computer in college, which made people comment on "my matrix screen saver" for three days.
Same, except I did this on a modded original Xbox with a pair of 400GB HDDs. It took a little less than a week to finish compiling everything. But that Xbox ran as a NAS 24/7 for about 7 years before I retired it. Absolutely solid. Gentoo was the way to go too, highly tuned, meticulously configured kernel for lean operation. 64MB RAM, only 25MBs used at boot, on average.

@@frank8627-v8k i mean as far as I understand it when it comes to audio systems, there's just ALSA at the lower level and then there's higher level libraries that utilize it, nowadays pipewire and jack, the latter being essentially only for very low latency managing of audio interfaces, useless for an average person, pipewire is all you really need and it provides backwards compatibility with pulse audio, I'd say if anything the audio system has moved in a very good direction and it's quite trouble-free nowadays
But yeah, while wayland is mostly very good, it also has issues (forced vsync by design, backwards compatibility with xorg when using nvidia, lack of ABIs for some basic stuff like global keybinds and compositor complexity), though a lot of them will be ironed out soon enough, flatpak surprisingly doesn't really have major drawbacks, doas is good but would need to be adopted by default by distros to be a serious sudo replacement cause otherwise there might always be some edge case bugs when replacing sudo with it, and immutable fs distros break more than they fix and are not worth even considering for the time being. Things are definitely moving in the right way and the linux user experience is better than ever tbh

Slowly but surely, you will start enjoying how Linux doesn't bother you with pesky notifications, ads for other software or services, very long updates that require rebooting the machine, etc. That's how I migrated to Linux from Windows.

My experience with linux is that there is ALWAYS something that do not work and need fixing, and when you solve that problem a new one comes to take its place and so it goes forever...
Which leads to why people who fall far enough down the rabbit hole end up making their own distro. Things tend to always be broken because whatever version you run, it was made by someone who left certain things out or put certain things in based on what they felt was necessary. It is sadly almost never what you think is necessary. At some point you realize it's just easier to start from the bottom and build something that works for you, than to try and adapt someone elses mess. I've dabbled in Linux since 2002 or so, and I've heard the "oh Linux is getting more user friendly, and will attract more people soon" spiel ever since then, but never bought into it. Every new "user friendly" distro only makes the problem worse, they add more bloatware, more ways to do the same things and more confusion for anyone trying to get anything that isn't bundled with the distro to work.
I went to a Linux get together (I don't exactly remember what it was for) probably 15 years ago. The people that were there are exactly what you would expect people to look like that would go to these get togethers. A lot of very intelligent people. But very little social skills. It was awkward.
"At this point GNU and Linux are just small parts of the systemd operating system" Too true to be nice. This is why I am making this post from my new daily driver - TempleOS

I am crying right now 😂 great video so true. Story time: ----------------- I used Linux in the past for years with i3 and with standard Ubuntu. I riced the hell out of it and it was very pleasant to use. But only in isolation, if you want to play games it is just a waste of time so I was always dual booting. After a while, unfortunately not soon enough, I realised that the whole thing was just a big hobby that eat up a lot of time rather than it being useful. But I had stuff to do, university assignments, other hobbies, and when your OS breaks and it takes even just 10min to fix it, it is already a failure. Put that together with the fact that in most software companies you are required to work under Windows, I started relying more and more on my dual boot i.e. Windows. After I bought a new machine, I didn't even bother putting Linux on it. Windows is a giant mess, not really customizable, you don't really have full control, kinda. But it is still better than having as a full time job the management of the OS on your computer.
Talks of ricing Ubuntu. Use Gentoo before you talk about ricing or spending time to customise your computer as a hobby. Ubuntu doesn't even make it easy to customise your package dependencies. You install it, it runs, end of story. You'd spend more time setting up a Windows machine. Out of the box, Windows doesn't even recognise any printers. Not to mention the two days of running the installer where Ubuntu only takes half an hour and has an office suite, photo editing, programming environment, and on-line manual pre-installed. With WINE you can even run Windows apps that Windows doesn't run anymore. And faster than Windows would on the same hardware.
Yeah, I recently tried running Ubuntu on the laptop I use for university and honestly it was just a pain. Eventually Linux will be better than Windows (hopefully), but as it is right now, I have no reason to use Linux over Windows. Windows 11 doesn't crash, it boots fast (and it would probably boot faster on Linux, but do I care about a few seconds? No) and everything just works. Also no way am I switching to Linux when running an Nvidia GPU.
@@lycanthoss I had to use Windows on a university laptop that has originally Ubuntu on it, for a project. That was in 2007. The irony was that the Windows-specific tools required tools and toolchains ported to Windows from Linux (via Cygnus) So I had to use software written for Linux in Windows on a laptop that had a Linux on it. It was painful. Everything made assumptions about the underlying system that were not always correct. And Windows was many times slower doing the same things as Linux. I was glad when I could switch back to the much easier to use Linux. Only recently did I have to use Windows again, for work, to ensure software compatibility. It is still many times slower to respond, it is still clunky to use, and everything still makes assumptions that are not always correct, and this time it's the Windows tools themselves that do that. Windows just gets in the way of work. Linux is a breeze to work with.
I wanted my media server to run on the smallest possible CPU footprint so it would be passively cooled. It was on an 800mhz C3 proc. So I downloaded gentoo, bootstrapped, compiled with the CPU specific flags and man that thing worked out great.... except for when I had to recompile due to the enormous dependency trees. Yeah, sorry kids, no Wiggles until march. Dad's recompiling the whole OS. Eventually I just stopped updating until the packages were so out of date I had to edit the C++ manually. Yeahh... up your Microsoft. Free software! 15 years later... [Written from windows 10]

He was referring to Pipewire, which kind of solves 99% of the issues I've encountered in Pulseaudio over the years. It's fantastic, and routing audio however you want is so much easier now, especially compared to Windows.
@@justadude8716 try splitting your audio to multiple outputs in windows. Linux is very modular and you can do really weird specific stuff customized to your own needs. In windows most stuff just works but if it doesn't you can't do it yourself.
@@tempacc9589 I was just making a joke, so I don't mean to argue but to just share my experience. I used Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, Gentoo, and (tried, but failed) with Linux from Scratch. A lot of things people associate with Linux, like modularity and customization, is also relevant with Windows but people like to give it crap for no reason.

The free software movement is such an interesting sociological phenomenon, and pretty sure other things like it rarely work in reality, we just got lucky with the tech field I guess
I think it's more that corporations have benefitted hugely from it in the tech field specifically, so they haven't lobbied to make it impossible/impractical like in most other areas.
@@HeadsFullOfEyeballs They have, actually. But they didn't succeed.
UEFI bootloader signing, a clever way for Lenovo to install an undeleteable Trojan horse on their laptops (alongside Intel's own Trusted Processing Module in the CPU itself), was designed to make installing anything other than Windows and Mac OS impossible.
But too much of the industry depends on unpaid free software, mostly Minix (for the Intel TPM), but also Debian and, in the case of the US military and the NSA, RedHat Linux. So they had to allow that, leaving only Lenovo with any advantage from UEFI.
A more striking example of how much the industry depends on free/libre software is OpenSSL, which encrypts practically all web traffic, including web Banking and inter-bank commerce. It is maintained by two hobbyists in their spare time.
Linux hosts 90% of all services on the internet, from mail servers to web servers to SaaS like Google Drive, Azure, and AWS. The remaining 10% are FreeBSD.
Linux also drives practically a of robotics.
And of course Linux achieved world dominance fast with the smartphone market, which eclipses the desktop market.
Today, Microsoft is the biggest contributor to the Linux kernel in lines of code. Their WindowsPhone can now run Android apps, and their desktop OS can run some docker images.
Linux is just a small part of the free software movement. MacOS X is built almost exclusively from free software, from the L4 microkernel to the BSD userland to the web browser engine forked from KDE's KHTML, built with the free/libre open source LLVM compiler (that Microsoft is also using for Visual Studio). The network stack in Microsoft Windows is a fork of the NetBSD stack, and the implementation of the SMB protocol (network neighbourhood, domain controllers, shared printers, etc) has been replaced with the open source implementation because their proprietary one had become unmaintainable. They also migrated their code repository from their discontinued own product to git.

When I was in college 20 years ago I decided to compile gentoo from a stage 1 tarball. It took my computer (a 32 bit athlon-b) something like 85 hours to compile my configuration (once I had figured out how to get it to stop segfaulting).
I did essentially the same thing with my buddies 64 core dual socket xeon machine a few years ago (it's for 3d rendering). I can't even remember how much ram it has; the thing is absurd. It crushed compiling a full gentoo system from source in under three hours. Not sure how long it took exactly, because I started my script, we went to lunch and it was done when we got back.
Unlike my computer in college, which made people comment on "my matrix screen saver" for three days.
Same, except I did this on a modded original Xbox with a pair of 400GB HDDs. It took a little less than a week to finish compiling everything.
But that Xbox ran as a NAS 24/7 for about 7 years before I retired it.

But yeah, while wayland is mostly very good, it also has issues (forced vsync by design, backwards compatibility with xorg when using nvidia, lack of ABIs for some basic stuff like global keybinds and compositor complexity), though a lot of them will be ironed out soon enough, flatpak surprisingly doesn't really have major drawbacks, doas is good but would need to be adopted by default by distros to be a serious sudo replacement cause otherwise there might always be some edge case bugs when replacing sudo with it, and immutable fs distros break more than they fix and are not worth even considering for the time being.

My experience with linux is that there is ALWAYS something that do not work and need fixing, and when you solve that problem a new one comes to take its place and so it goes forever...
Which leads to why people who fall far enough down the rabbit hole end up making their own distro.
Things tend to always be broken because whatever version you run, it was made by someone who left certain things out or put certain things in based on what they felt was necessary. It is sadly almost never what you think is necessary. At some point you realize it's just easier to start from the bottom and build something that works for you, than to try and adapt someone elses mess.
I've dabbled in Linux since 2002 or so, and I've heard the "oh Linux is getting more user friendly, and will attract more people soon" spiel ever since then, but never bought into it. Every new "user friendly" distro only makes the problem worse, they add more bloatware, more ways to do the same things and more confusion for anyone trying to get anything that isn't bundled with the distro to work.
I went to a Linux get together (I don't exactly remember what it was for) probably 15 years ago. The people that were there are exactly what you would expect people to look like that would go to these get togethers. A lot of very intelligent people. But very little social skills. It was awkward.

Story time:
-----------------
I used Linux in the past for years with i3 and with standard Ubuntu. I riced the hell out of it and it was very pleasant to use.
But only in isolation, if you want to play games it is just a waste of time so I was always dual booting.
After a while, unfortunately not soon enough, I realised that the whole thing was just a big hobby that eat up a lot of time rather than it being useful.
But I had stuff to do, university assignments, other hobbies, and when your OS breaks and it takes even just 10min to fix it, it is already a failure.
Put that together with the fact that in most software companies you are required to work under Windows, I started relying more and more on my dual boot i.e. Windows.
After I bought a new machine, I didn't even bother putting Linux on it.
Windows is a giant mess, not really customizable, you don't really have full control, kinda. But it is still better than having as a full time job the management of the OS on your computer.
Talks of ricing Ubuntu.
Use Gentoo before you talk about ricing or spending time to customise your computer as a hobby.
Ubuntu doesn't even make it easy to customise your package dependencies. You install it, it runs, end of story.
You'd spend more time setting up a Windows machine. Out of the box, Windows doesn't even recognise any printers. Not to mention the two days of running the installer where Ubuntu only takes half an hour and has an office suite, photo editing, programming environment, and on-line manual pre-installed.
With WINE you can even run Windows apps that Windows doesn't run anymore. And faster than Windows would on the same hardware.
Yeah, I recently tried running Ubuntu on the laptop I use for university and honestly it was just a pain. Eventually Linux will be better than Windows (hopefully), but as it is right now, I have no reason to use Linux over Windows. Windows 11 doesn't crash, it boots fast (and it would probably boot faster on Linux, but do I care about a few seconds? No) and everything just works. Also no way am I switching to Linux when running an Nvidia GPU.
@@lycanthoss Eventually was seven years ago.
@@davidwuhrer6704 not for most people
@@lycanthoss I had to use Windows on a university laptop that has originally Ubuntu on it, for a project. That was in 2007. The irony was that the Windows-specific tools required tools and toolchains ported to Windows from Linux (via Cygnus) So I had to use software written for Linux in Windows on a laptop that had a Linux on it.
It was painful. Everything made assumptions about the underlying system that were not always correct. And Windows was many times slower doing the same things as Linux.
I was glad when I could switch back to the much easier to use Linux.
Only recently did I have to use Windows again, for work, to ensure software compatibility.
It is still many times slower to respond, it is still clunky to use, and everything still makes assumptions that are not always correct, and this time it's the Windows tools themselves that do that.
Windows just gets in the way of work. Linux is a breeze to work with.
I wanted my media server to run on the smallest possible CPU footprint so it would be passively cooled. It was on an 800mhz C3 proc. So I downloaded gentoo, bootstrapped, compiled with the CPU specific flags and man that thing worked out great.... except for when I had to recompile due to the enormous dependency trees. Yeah, sorry kids, no Wiggles until march. Dad's recompiling the whole OS. Eventually I just stopped updating until the packages were so out of date I had to edit the C++ manually.
Yeahh... up your Microsoft. Free software!
