Linux Archipelago

Add Nixos. Also put Slackware to Valley of the lost

Not really Linux, but TempleOS should be in the fog somewhere. Maybe technically off the archipelago, but close enough to be related to it in some way.

Gamers Bay of course with Steam and Bazzite. If there's a spot for mobile, Mobian & Postmarket are both top tier

Meanwhile openSUSE is still in Germany, just lederhosen & none of this enchanting tropical nonsense.

I assume Hannah Montana is a mystical island only magical maps can lead to?

Where's the GNU fortress, with trisquel, parabola and others?

Now let's make an rpg in that map, or maybe a new quest for supertuxkart

Manjaro is supposedly named after Mount Kilimanjaro and being arch-based, it would be appropriate to have it up on the mountain near Arch but lower.

Perhaps a $path going up the mountain range could be added.

The $path could be called "The Way" so you could put Arch BTW.

Lol at arch on the mountain. Every fucking noob goes straight for Arch.

Gentoo belongs over on the Highs of Knowledge

I'd swap Arch and Gentoo - I think Gentoo should be on the precarious peak and Arch at a more accessible altitude.

Took me a minute to find openSUSE. It appears, the chameleon did its job

Who is Terminal George

Gentoo and LFS to the Highs of Knowledge

somehow needs this meme in it:

I feel like NixOS should be down a mineshaft underneath the Highs of Knowledge

And Guix somewhere below that

Where is my os? aha. Joke apart, you could add NetBSD somewhere very deep for fun

Instead of a circus, Ubuntu should be a bunch of people who live in a cave and see the world through shadows on the wall. 

At this point I'm just glad Slackware is even on the map.

Gentoo should be on an island surrounded by a ring of rocks that makes it almost impossible to get to

Hello. One of the oldest Linux distributions, openSUSE, is missing.

Where would Free BSD live?

And can Thx be some sort of sea monster/leviathan.

Awsome work.

I feel like Raspbian deserves a place on here somewhere, although I'm not sure where exactly. It's the distro I've installed the most times since I like to do Raspberry Pi projects, and I imagine there's quite a few people out there whose first major exposure to Linux was for the same reason. So maybe it should go near Welcome Bay?

Okay, first I thought this is trash, but the more you explore the better it gets. Here, take a Lemmy award: 🏅

LAND of SLOPDOR

you forgot to put OSX on there.

this is adorable

What no love for Commodore OS

It’s my new favourite Linux

Lol nix is the dungeon. I love dungeon crawling. This tracks.

If unraid is there I want openzfs to be there 😁

Move TempleOS to a floating sky temple, and make where it is Portable Bay, where various portable linux ships are moored, named Knoppix (a galleon), Puppy Linux (a fishing boat), Slax (a little sailboat), and TinyCore (a rowboat or kayak)

Garuda should be up near Bazzite

Thought this was the island from Pokémon Snap, at first

Oh god, I'm in the hidden Manjaro slums

This reminds me of my "Linux island" city in Cities Skylines! I can get screenshots later, but basically there's the main island of the Linux distros/districts, where the outer parts are more noob friendly and the inner parts are more "advanced", with the nearby, considerably more crowded and poorer Android island consisting of various Android ROMs.

Unraid probably is in the pay resort area as well.

Kali, ParrotOS, and BlackArch are the B-52s flying overhead out of the frame

Nobara Linux is missing from gaming

How does Debian get so far up north?

Biebian should be somewhere among the stars like Hannah Montana Linux

And underneath the whole archipelago,

__          __             __
\ \_________\ \____________\ \___
 \  _ \  _\ _  \  _\ __ \ __\   /
  \___/\__/\__/ \_\ \___/\__/\_\_\

I love this! Super fun!

I so want to see how you depict Yggdrassyl, though, the very first and only distro released by Linus himself

Why are Ubuntu and Kubuntu so far away?

Can we maybe have Void Linux as like, an entrance to a foreboding cave of some kind?

I'm... trying to figure out if you could make the 'topology' here work with non system d variants of linux, but I can't figure out how.

Void Linux! There are single digits of us!

I would add DeepinOs in an ultra-modern, automatic-opening building shaped like a trash can.

What distro is represented by the Tux of the Deep there? Just lurking beneath the waves?

can you add silver blue and co to the dark forest next to Fedora

I’ve added so much to my OS tree it looks like a forest where you can get lost forever. 

Is ZorinOS really considered a paid distro? It's my main one and though it has indeed a paid version, the fact that it brings nothing more than extra desktop presets and preinstalled softwares made me think that it was closer to a donation system with rewards than to actual paid version. I wonder if that's a shared sentiment or if I'm thinking less strictly than most people.

slackware catching some flak there

Where are the "elitist gatekeepers" screaming "you need to learn shell scripting and vim!" with an Omarchy logo?

Void Linux should be between debian and arch as it is "rolling stable release"

The uwuntu-nyarch-Linuwux triad are caves hidden below the mountain

Add YellowDog and Clear Linux to the valley of the lost

Grabbing my machete and wading into the jungles of Fedora.

huh, why's manjaro got battle damage on its logo?

Void should be a like a barely connected fishing village.

Needs Alpine

I'd love to see alpine on there

I feel like Slackware needs to be higher up the mountain than Debian.

Trisquel and Dragora should be in Fredonia since they run on all free software by default.
