Cuz like, GNU was the thing before Linux, so I'd say that's pretty important.
So say GNU instead of GNU linux kek
Why? Both parts of GNU/Linux are important. Open source is all about collaboration. It doesn't need to conform to the neat capitalist OS ideas with one monolithic corporate creator and one user-friendly name.
Some people call just linux so.... Also GNU is easier to say than GNU/Linux right? Thats the same argument made by people who say just "linux".
Free software is all about freedom. Nothing wrong with any of them tho
