- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudoin Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

My daily hobby is to go through the english dictionary and make a new distro for each word.

Debian Ubuntu redhat
Okay okay, we only needed 10.
Edit: Though Ubuntu falls under Debian, so that's redundant.

Off the top of my head:
OpenSuSE, Gentoo, Arch, Debian, Mandrake, Damn Small Linux, Puppy Linux, Backtrack Linux, Slackware, CentOS
Some of these have changed names or stopped being supported, unfortunately.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as...
The OS formerly known as Linux
WSL, Mac OS, Richard Stallman, GNU, the cloud
Arch, Manjaro, KDE Neon, Lindows (the one that was getting sued by macrohard in the past), Mocachino (not added to DW yet but is on their list of ones needing approval or something/LFS based distro), MX Linux, Sparky, Mint, Gentoo, and Fedora were the first ones that popped into my head almost immediately.
Arch, Ubuntu, Mint, Kali.... Honestly all I got.
Mint is based on Ubuntu and Kali/Ubuntu are based on Debian. That is kinda what the meme is about ;)

Out of the loop here what's that meme template/movie?
PS: Joke is good btw ;)
Debian based. Debian? Based!
They made distros after Slackware?
Debian, Fedora, Arch, Gentoo, Slackware, LFS, Mandravia, OpenSuse, Knoppix, Puppy
And an honorable FreeBSD mention
I've spent a lot of time on the toilet looking at this.
