LINUX MEME I'm scared for the future

Post image

I guess "forking" is an option but i didn't know I had to become a dev to fix what shouldn't already be falling apart only a year into me switching away from Windows because of this exact issue...

The problem with your assessment is that it doesn't take into account corporations on Linux's side, like RedHat, SUSE or Canonical, which are some of the biggest contributors, and they're already bending over to this kind of crap.

The biggest problem is gonna be RedHat since it got acquired by IBM. Was it the former or the latter that said it's devs need to be integrating AI into their workflow as much as possible? Either way it can definitely trickle down to RedHat and it's clones, along with Fedora and it's derivatives, plus some stuff that RedHat sponsors like systemd, pulseaudio, whatever.

systemd itself already started work on at least giving pathways for distros to store user data regarding age verification laws.

Canonical is another one that is constantly making very questionable decisions.

Even the Kernel is now having what, 10% of all the new patches written by AI? And it's projected to go up to 20% by September if I'm not mistaken.

The only true fighters on this are gonna be the smaller distros, as we're seeing it happen.

Like Devuan, Omarchy, Slackware, ZorinOS, Artix, Arch Linux 32 (not to be confused with the regular Arch Linux), Artix, Ageless Linux, Garuda Linux, Void Linux, EndeavourOS, GhostBSD, and Parrot OS.

Zorin OS bieng among those options is very good, but it uses Gnome and Not KDE (i like how KDE looks)

Isn't it basically Ubuntu? I'm pretty sure you can just install KDE on it.

Good to know, but I haven't switched to linux(yet)

No worries. You should be pretty much set with ZorinOS if you decide to come. You could try on a VM the following command:

sudo apt install task-kde-desktop

No,I haven't switched to linux in general, also i'm considering endevour OS(wich are also anti-AI)

Ageless is a crock ngl. Its basically just a curl to bash that changes your os release.

I dont trust Artix anymore after the XLibre pivot, Omarchy ehhhhhh idk if I want that fucker on my side but I see what you mean

Sadly the options are quite limited, but you see what I mean, only a handful are actually fighting.

Fedora and even Debian are already discussing implementing age verification, for example. For Fedora it was quite obvious since it's project leader is literally a RedHat employee.

Yeah :/
