don’t feed the troll, that comment makes it clear they have zero understanding of what Linux is if they make generalize it like it is one thing.

It is one thing. FreeBSD and NetBSD are not one thing. Linux is one thing.
And I meant Linux, not distributions and userlands, so you’re the troll here.

Yes, and the same can be said about Windows NT, yet it’s called one thing. Honestly I think I’m getting tired of American intelligence.

So I’m curious. If you mean the Linux kernel, when and how do you think it went off down the wrong path?

Around year 1999. No particular reason, just it seems to have gained recognition and approval among the big fish then.
If by “when” you mean analytically, then when it stopped being “a hobby project started by a Finnish student with participation of volunteers from all around the world” and became one of the houses of power.

Oh. It’s you again. Good to see your shallow takes haven’t changed.
Can’t you have the foresight to actually read and research why things like the FOSS projects we rely on are validated? Linux is owned by no one, and is used by everyone who wants to. Plain and simple. More adoption and more contributors means a better experience for the end user and the developer.
Corporate users are a feature, not a bug, and if anything, their adoption does more to cement the success of the project more than anything else. Plus, the Linux kernel can be wrapped into many different distros designed for transparency, why not pick your favorite one, instead of the “corporate standard”?
