“Every community has its heroes. From the beginning of time,
we’ve all needed that special something to grasp onto and worship
in one way or another. The Linux community is no different. Sure,
there are a handful of people known as leaders or visionaries that
people look up to, but what other altars do they worship at? The
Altar of the Distro. That’s the one I’m referring to. According to
the DistroWatch page hit ranking sidebar, Ubuntu Linux has held the
title of ‘most worshiped distro’ for quite some time now. So why is
that? Is it because Ubuntu is just that good? Is it because the
Ubuntu followers are just sitting there hitting their browsers
refresh button on the DistroWatch Ubuntu page? What is it about
Mary…?”
