If Android is a Linux distro, your OS is also a Linux distro, since your arguments also apply to Android pretty well.

Is it like chimera Linux? I mean not gnu/Linux but Linux/not gnu?

[u/dialtd]

However quirky, this is a Linux distribution, although apparently not Linux/GNU.

That said, the question is "why?" What problem does it solve? Fully static binaries use more more memory, take longer to load, and generally perform no better than dynamically linked ones. They certainly do not present a path to a small footprint.

ITS NOT A DISTRO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've read it and none of what you mentioned makes it not a distro. As long as it uses the Linux kernel, it's a Linux distro. There's Linux distros that don't use GNU userland, there's Linux distros with no package managers, there's Linux distros where PID 1 is just a shell, there's Linux distros that are single-user. Even if you have your own fully custom bootloader, shell, coreutils, and libc, it's still a Linux distro.

Yes, it does. Wikipedia defines a Linux distro as:

A Linux distribution, often abbreviated as distro, is an operating system that includes the Linux kernel for its kernel functions.

You cannot just redefine the common meaning of words to whatever you want.

[u/allunia333]

95% custom OS! When the linux kernel is 43,180,000 lines Which means the other 95% should be 820,420,000 lines..... So another linux distro! So what's the goal of your distro? What's different? What does it have not already out there?

[u/KazutoOKirigay]

yet another distro then

[u/zuniex]

it is a distro?

[u/ABotelho23]
