Man, this infographic is like, EXACTLY why people are scared of Linux, lol.
It has a lot of good info but it's just so overloaded. Can't decide what story it wants to tell so it tells like 7 of them.
It reminds me of conspiracy charts that gets posted on Facebook by your aunt.
I'm a Linux user and that infographic scares me
I love it, and I donβt even use dabian based distros π€£
Let's gooooo
Debian (+Devuan), Ubuntu (+Kubuntu, Lubuntu), Linux Mint, Zorin, KDE Neon, Kali, Parrot, Tails, Raspberry Pi OS
Fedora, RHEL, Nobara, Bazzite, Qubes
OpenSUSE
Arch (+Artix), Manjaro, Garuda, Endeavour, CachyOS, KDE Linux
Slackware
Gentoo, Funtoo
Just say debian and you already mentioned like 100 distros, that is the point of OP meme, lol
True :)
Probably the highest amount of derivatives, even if two-thirds are through Ubuntu lol
Isnβt βRaspberry Pi OSβ called βRaspbianβ?
That's its old name, sometimes still circulating out of habit. Currently, it is officially called Raspberry Pi OS.
Check his penis.
dont forget scientific linux
Let's see what I got.
Debian
Ubuntu
Mint
Fedora
Red hat
Suse
Slackware

Zorin
Silverblue
Bazzite
SteamOS
CentOS
Redstar
I know I'm missing some but that should be 10.
TempleOS isn't a Linux distro
My mistake, for some reason I thought it was based on linux.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it isn't exactly an OS I've used lol, I just knew the name and meme.
I think you mean GNU/Linux
Look Richard no matter how many times you post this, no-one is going to start calling it GNU/Linux.
He's just mad that the Linux community upstaged HURD
In fact, systemd is arguable a more important component covering more aspects of system function in a lot of distributions: home mounting, boot process, logging, init, cron... I'm going to start calling it systemd/Linux, just to mess with Stallman.

Long ago, I used Debian on my main PC but decided to go with Ubuntu on the laptop because it was easy to set up.
Later I switched to Debian on the laptop, too, because ultimately I felt Ubuntu was just Debian with extra steps.
There are only three. Debian-based, Redhat/Fedora-based, and then the rest nobody cares about...
Here's a picture of the linux distro family tree:
There's Debian, the distro.
There's Redhat/Fedora, which is commercial,
there's gentoo, where on installation, everything is compiled from source.
There is slackware, mostly for historical purposes (it was the first distro),
there's arch for ~~people who want to feel they're better than others~~ tinkerers,,
there is openSUSE, which is like redhat but german.
Slackware is the oldest distribution which is still active. I remember Yggdrasil came before it, and I'm looking it up, I see that Slackware was based on the earlier SLS.
What's with nexenta changing colour in between?
Did it change ownership right before going down?
Same for beafanatix, which changes the line colour right after the starting dot.
Arch-based is only going to become more of a thing thanks to SteamOS.
Yea, this grafic is pretty outdated already
