The files it uses are mostly just the tools and shims which can be copied over from a working distribution.
The maintainer is just lazy and he doesn’t let people improve it either because he wants it to be coded in a certain way: https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/issues/2795#issuecomment-2326831525
It is not a malicious project, yet the xz-utils backdoor should make us be concerned, and we should only use a fork that pulls in the binaries from trusted sources.
All that effort, when you could’ve just called it LUNIX.
By the way, does this expression match LUNIX? But if so, won’t it also match Binux or Bunix?
Given the label is meant to classify related operating systems, the label should provide an accurate description of the basis of the system.
Which is one of the reasons why specified GNU/Linux separately from just Linux for Alpine, instead of calling it Musl/Linux.
If a software is written for just Linux, it will work on either system. But if it is written for GLIBC, it work work on Musl LIBC based systems.
Programs linked dynamically with Musl LIBC won’t work on GLIBC based systems too, but considering the trend of everyone using GLIBC, those who build for Musl LIBC would state it explicitly, compared to programs released for GLIBC, which ambiguously only say that it is built for Linux.
software written for “Linux” usually works on any POSIX operating system, and sometimes even Windows. Unless you’re talking about binary compatibility, which is meaningless in the Linux space anyway.
In practice, as a person who uses Musl LIBC and the Runit init system, most “Linux programs” don’t even work on it, often even if I try to build it from source because of their dependencies on GLIBC. GLIBC is a very hard dependency that most people overlook when writing software.
And many programs even have a hard dependency on systemd, to a lesser extent. Even that too only works on systems with GLIBC, and cannot be used with any other LIBC.
Chrome OS would be a Proprietary Community/Linux OS, and Chromium OS would be a Community/Linux OS. Chromium is a community project that’s added to the Gentoo base.
By Community, I’m referring to the free community projects, not just any contributions.
Windows for example is an Proprietary NT OS, but all Windows are NT based, so we can just skip the NT part.
I have added the problem to the post for those who are unaware.
LiGNUx is unpronounceable. It’s kind of like xbwhfr.
Linux is pronounceable, but the recognition of one of the founders who chose to market it while the other who fought for freedom gets unrecognised is unfair, and people can notice that.
I mentioned *BSD because I’m solving this problem from an ontological level to address systems. If someone categorizes FreeBSD as a BSD OS vs BSD fork, there’s still a small debate that can arise from it. Calling it a Community/BSD OS gives attribution to the core team as well as the original BSD team. And all of it remains easily pronounceable as well.
You wouldn’t call it GNU slash Linux, but a “community developed GNU and Linux based OS” and just Linux for referring to the Kernel. Most apps for example run only on GLIBC, and therefore calling them Linux apps doesn’t make it inclusive of Musl LIBC based systems.
The recognition of GNU (and Linux) as the OS in a GNU/Linux distribution.

Israel’s existence is based on the ethnic cleansing of Palestine. Palestine does not care about killing Zionists as much as taking back their land. There’s nothing preventing the Zionists to own the land in Palestine legally, other than that they’ll have to give up the privilege of what they stole. Many residents in the country even have dual citizenship so they can go back to their homelands if they can’t afford to pay fairly.
What do you mean? I see only original content here… at least on my server, and also in lemmy.ml, lemmy.world, etc.
I thought maybe you thought that WAV was purer than FLAC
Soundcloud is one! Some artists let you download their music and others don’t. Other than than Soundcloud isn’t open source, I don’t see what’s wrong with them.
Just convert it with FFmpeg
It’s is not a propaganda, it is just what copyright law is. Unless people waiver their rights specifically, purchased music is always licensed to you.
Meaning you cannot share the file to anyone else, because if that was the case anyone could buy it and share it with anyone else, making the concept of purchases void.
The only fair alternative would be to make the music a one time purchase of Price per user * Number of Expected users so that the artist gets their fair money and people can buy it by pooling money.
That is stupid, but that’s how copyright is.
