 Oh boy, okay, so I just woke up from a nightmare. I gotta share it with you guys It's about the future of Linux and let me tell you the future of Linux is bleak because in my dream I extrapolated all of the trends. I know what the direction of Linux is I've seen it and I feel like I need to warn you guys about it because I don't know it's it's something maybe you You did you won't expect okay, so first off I gotta I gotta get the order of everything right, but I'll tell you the kind of stuff that happens in my dream For one of the first things that happens is that a Leonard pottering comes out and he's you know He says you know what system D needs system D. I got a new project. It got a new sub module for system D It's called system D Linux D Okay, and it's gonna be they're gonna build he's gonna say what we really need in system D Is we need an entire kernel built in the system D and that's gonna happen Okay, all of the kernel modules. They're gonna be built into system D So you now yeah, technically people are not gonna be running Linux at all. They're actually just gonna be running system D Okay, that's gonna be the new thing I think people will continue to call it Linux because I think the name sort of has like a nerd cred to it But technically speaking won't be Linux now. Here's a question. You might ask all right So when we're all using this new system D operating system, is it gonna have good good good programs on it? Is it gonna like have more stuff on it? Are we gonna have all of our fun proprietary games from Microsoft and video editing software from Mac and the answer You know if we can install all those on Linux the answer is yes and no because if you just extrapolate the trends We're actually not going to have package managers anymore. Okay, they're gonna be deprecated Okay, because canonical and all these other corporations are like no what we really need to do is we need to use Snap and flat pack for everything. So on this system D operating system There is just gonna be the only way you install things is by using some sandbox quote-unquote sandboxed Application manager. Okay app get is gone Pac-man gone emerge gone. All of those are gone And of course people are people are like, oh, well, we need some standardized way of doing unit Linux packages and containers. So they're they're actually gonna be probably around a hundred or so of these And they're all gonna run on every distribution Like if you install a Linux distribution Basically, what's gonna happen is that you're gonna have snap and you're gonna have flat pack and app image and probably 5,000 other ones that do exactly the same thing and have like minor differences So but that is how you're gonna install basically everything. Okay, and people are gonna take the sandboxing meme really seriously Okay, because canonical is like, oh, it's danger. It's dangerous if you don't don't use sandboxing for everything So basically what's gonna happen is Like you're gonna start sandboxing the sandboxes or you'll have snap inside of flat pack and flat pack inside of snack Like recursive package managers And they're gonna go back to requiring You know to maximally sandbox everything they're gonna require basically to let's say you have a program or 50 programs that require curl Okay, you're gonna have to have 50 versions of curl. So basically Your your system your sandbox system like the basic minimal install is gonna be around 50 gigs or so That's gonna be like how it works out. Okay, and if you want to update basically It's gonna be I mean people already know how difficult it is to like run a system and like update snap and flat pack and stuff like that But in the future, it's basically gonna be like you don't update because it's like too difficult So they're just gonna deprecate updating. They're just gonna say, okay Well, if you want to like update if you if you want to update from yesterday's like problematic binaries or something like that You're just gonna have to reinstall your system because that's gonna be the easiest thing like updating is gonna be too difficult Because you're gonna have containers in containers and like all the different containers need to be individually updated That's how it's eventually gonna be. Okay for your safety or something like that. Okay? So what else is gonna happen now one thing that's gonna happen in all of this is the Unix Base core of Linux or GNU will be totally stripped out. Okay already This is happening like if you look at a command like LS BLK on a normal Unix base operating system LS BLK lists your block devices that lists the hard drives you have Connected in their partitions. That's not gonna have already we see if you run LS BLK on a machine that has snap That is actually the command to list all the programs you have running. Okay, so that's actually gonna happen with every other Unix base command it's gonna be totally inoperable in the new system. So Leonard pottering or whoever well He'll inevitably get like fired or me too because he's a white male, but whoever is replacing him will eventually say Okay, here's what's gonna happen. We're gonna. We're gonna have to deprecate this Unix stuff We're gonna have to deprecate GNU and get rid of it. Okay, and once they do that They'll probably also just get rid of the whole free software thing. They'll just be like, okay Well GNU these were these like extremists who were just like weirdos So we need to get rid of their their project and any other kind of free software Okay, now there are still gonna be people who use Linux because it's free software But basically what's gonna happen is that like the unit the user experience, okay? First off again, you're not gonna be able to update stuff It's gonna be really hard to install stuff because you have so many universal package managers that work on every distro So basically but but your individual experience is People will come to Linux because they're like, oh, well, it's a free and open-source Software project and operating system. So that means my my privacy is good But then canonical and all these companies, they'll be like, okay, welcome to Linux here install Google Chrome here install steam Okay, actually, this isn't even happening in the future That's how this is happening right now like people come to Linux and then like they go to the Ubuntu forms And they'll ask like, oh, how do I install steam? How do I install like Netflix? How do I install this monitoring device? Okay, and people will be like, oh, let me help you so That's gonna happen and another thing is so basically all core utilities all all of Unix is gonna be deprecated Really and the only thing there's not gonna be programs anymore. Mind you We're gonna adopt Macintosh language. So everything was gonna be referred to as an app. Okay? Everything's an app and you might say, oh, there's a difference between apps and programs and blah, blah, blah No, no, but everything is gonna be an app Basically every single program to do the most basic things is gonna be probably electron-based. I think that's the most likely so you're gonna Basically if you want to install a new program First off, you're doing it through a container But the base program itself is probably gonna be around 400 megabytes But you need to again pull all those dependencies so you can sandbox them. So that's gonna be probably a couple gigs So, yeah, that's definitely the future like the direction. I think things are moving in So it's probably gonna have most of this has already started to happen like it's just you know, you might as well get over it But I think things probably will accelerate the people who use Basically everyone who originally used Linux will be kicked off of it in one way or another and it's just gonna be entirely Replaced by corporate shills. If you want to keep your job You're probably gonna have to like buy a dress and start taking female hormones frankly But things are gonna be pretty bleak for the operating system. I don't know what we're gonna do I think maybe on this channel when this stuff starts to happen or at least starts to happen a little faster I think I might move to open BSD or something like that. It seems like an okay operating system But yeah, so that's it. If there's anything I missed put it in the comments I feel like there's a lot of stuff that I missed But I'll have to I'll have to catalog all of this for the future and people look back And I know what a lot of you guys are saying. Oh, well, this is a tongue-in-cheek video No, it isn't a tongue-in-cheek video you you watch you watch for system D Linux D Okay, we already have system D home D. Okay, you just watch I guarantee you
