    The sharp uptick of crap flown around 2.6 piques my interest. As does someone’s introduction of ‘retard’ into the vocabulary shortly prior. Must have been popcorn times.

      I don’t think this uptick of 2.6 sounds fair to be interpreted as a timeline because it stuck around for five years. Also around that time embedded devices boomed, and LTS kept it alive well into 2010s. I bet there have to be a large amount of swears from the later developers tried hard to fix bugs.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
