Seriously, why fragment the ecosystem when we already have auditable FOSS OSs that can be a drop in EU OS with no need for development. Many of the big companies that made their own Linux distros basically just cloned and tweaked a mainstream distro anyway, why not just latch onto something existing and make a custom install image?
Indeed. Also I still think that the initiators try something fishy and are opportunistic, why else come out NOW with a Linux attempt called EU OS like it’s something official.
A linux distribution with the kind of support that Android receives would be great. I know there are lots of Linux enthusiasts here on Lemmy but for most people, the fragmentation and driver issues of Linux don’t make it a viable alternative to macOS or Windows.
I haven’t read the article but last i checked there was talk about a European made open source linux distribution.
Eu OS its still just a proof of concept
why do we even need “eu OS”? We have already Arch and opensuse and cachyOS?
