Where do we put QubesOS
CachyOS a bit to the left. It is not at all mainstream in my bubble.
NixOS on the niche and corporate quadrant.
Put windows 10 just below windows 11
LOL at Windows being marked as less corporate than MacOS. They should absolutely be at least tied.
Literal megacorporations have run purely on Windows since the 90s and it’s not S-tier corporate? lol
Windows is not at the top of corporate possibly because it can be installed on non-homologated PCs.
But on the other hand, all the reasons that people hate corporate OSes apply much more to Microsoft than Apple. Microsoft is the company that puts ads in their OS and is built entirely out of proprietary tech, and has been more vocal about shoehorning AI into everything.
That’s a poor qualifier. Most corporations do not deploy MacOS to their employees. Windows belongs in the top right, if not a full line by itself for Corporate.
Windows (either 11 or 10) needs to be in the top right corner. MacOS should be one notch down vertically. Ubuntu and mint both move one notch right. Cachy moves one notch left. Gentoo moves two to the right.
I am not sure I understand your logic behind Cachy and Gentoo. Cachy is actually quite mainstream now and Gentoo is… less so.
I think there’s just not enough tiles here. FreeBSD is definitely more mainstream than Haiku, but less so than Gentoo, let alone Arch.
What would you change?
RedHat’s a corporation, and so move it to the right a couple squares, above Ubuntu. And move Windows up one.
And I’d add:

Though I’m not sure where they’d all go. And many of these would have to double up in lib-left. And/or split up the chart into more squares.
And I’d cross-post to a political compass lemmy community. ;)
What is corporate about Debian?
I could think of a couple votes.
It’s used by companies for its rock-solid stability in long up times.
Why is “used by companies” criteria for being corporate?
Companies use doors. Are doors “corporate” now?
Debian had corporate funding, even if they those corporations don’t have any ibfluence. It being one of the oldest and mostly widely used Linux distributions means that by the virtue of it being an enterprise-level system it is somewhat more corporate. Debian can neatly fit into most corporate and enterprise systems and probably is somewhere in almost everyone’s stack. That’s not bad and doesn’t make it a corpo distro, but it definitely is more “corporate” than something like Arch which it is rightfully juxtaposed against
That makes sense, “used by” doesn’t.
Well if among 30 doors, 2 specifically are used; then yes
more people working on it, maybe? i’m not sure, but it’s the same situation for arch
SUSE just one down from RedHat
Pretty much the opposite of Arch Linux.
Its right beside it you goofy goober. :3
Of all the problems, this bothered me the most.
I mean, I think the spot each is in is okay, its more that line. The opposite would be macos or windows 11, methinks.
Where’s Hannah Montana Linux?
I miss RedStarOS, Suicide Linux (OK, not a distro) and TempleOS here as well.
Oh damn, I forgot to add HML to my list.
Biebian, too.
if you live antwhere but the USA and Canada, MacOS is a niche, absolutely not mainstream at all, I see more linux users than MacBook users here in Brazil
macs are so rare that someone once screenshared and i was almost asking if that was gnome
Oh, didn’t you know? “The World” is just “USA” on the Internet.
I mean…it was invented there. And it is the third most populous country in the world. So, for a long time the Internet was USA. It’s not anymore but change can take a while to sink in.
Just my 2 cents.
I wouldn’t play the game. Just eat your flavor of ice cream.
Fedora isn’t based ln RHEL, it was before, but now it’s in fact the opposite. As far as I know, RHEL 10 is based on CentOS Stream 10, which in turn is based on Fedora 41.
That’s correct. The community threw a fit when CentOS moved into that Stream position. Despite it being ABI compatible with RHEL.
I didn’t throw a fit I just replaced it within two months with debian and life goes on.
Congrats? Enjoy your totally different ecosystem and lack of SELinux.
Somehow I’ve managed to get through okay. It might have something to do with competence.
Weird choice of OS in that case. One the preconfigures many packages for you. You do you.
How is Debian More niche than cachy?
Perhaps a bloat to frugal axis and niche to mainstream axis?
