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.

It’s the one that @crc@blendit.bsd.cafe mentioned. I thought it was popular with BSD people.

It is general knowledge that these companies do this. FSF has campaigned a lot against DRM, under the name Defective by Design.

When someone makes a contract with the devil and complains when it affects them, pointing it out is not victim blaming.
