I though of:

Your hardware deserves better.

Also you can give some more realistic ones like my friend:

It just (not) works

"It just works"

..because that is the state of a mainstream modern distro, and it's not true of Windows anymore.

Alternatively "No nagging, no forced online account."

With a bit of a double-entendre, "It powers the world", since it's the most common server platform.

More funny: "It's not an OS. It's a hobby."

lol I was going to suggest "it just works"

I would not have suggested that before this year but it's definitely true now, or at least truer than for Windows/Apple.

Jokingly: "Linux is free if your time is worthless"

Though this tongue-in-cheek tagline takes the "free as in free beer" misinterpretation of the term "free software", I've always found it a fun way to describe the time investment you'll need to make if you've spent your whole life using Windows before making the switch.

valve's success is the rebranding of flatpak wine fsync and dxvk as steam runtime and proton. people fucking hate Linux and will only use it by accident

[-] Babalugats@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 week ago

That's far too long. They could try and turn it into a ditty for an advert, but it wouldn't look great on their merch.

It's pretty difficult to have a slogan when the price tag is reason enough to download it

"Linux...

"Because you don't have to be the product"

"No overlords"

"What spying?"

"Infinitely extendable"

Which one do you like best?

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Probably thing valve does where all the other players in the market are so shit, you doing very little garners huge public support.

Linux

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.
