If I go distro->religion then I guess I'm Orthodox.
If I go religion->distro then I guess I need to start using a TI graphing calculator.

I feel like you made this chart for me specifically, so thank you
What about Gnostics? I feel there is some severe underrepresentation for my favourite flavour of heretics.

I understand very few of these, except for arch, slack and the bottom row.
How is ope suse and chrome Os related? Are baptist and southern baptist very different?
Northern baptists were decentralized abolitionists, while southern baptists were centralized and pro-slavery.
Arch is the denomination that is super proud of itself, despite being messed up for most people. OpenSuse is Baptist due to it's general reliability and flexibility. ChromeOS is Southern Baptist because it's barely recognizable as Linux.
I've heard mostly bad things about southern baptists, so I understand why the chrome os. I'm unsure of the relations of baptists and southern baptists.
Evangelicals are typically traditional, very conservative, and proud. I thats a play on the arch user of doing everything in the command line and letting everyone know.
Orthodox is has some nuonsed diffrences to Catholic, but is under a different hierarchy. Not sure how that relates to slackware
The bottem row are all non Christian, so they are aptly not linux.
Orthodox is Slackware because it's the oldest Christian denomination and changes very slowly.
Slackware really should be Church of the Subgenius.
I was really proud of a lot of these jokes by the way. Many are multi-layered.

ok but linux mint was my first distro and i did grow up methodist through my parents
EndeavorOS: Taoism/Buddhism?
Where does that put Judaism? Just a bare Linux kernel without the rest of the OS?

Spot on as a FreeBSD and macOS user but those are UNIX rather than Linux (though I use Alpine Linux pretty heavily too).
FreeBSD and macOS user but those are UNIX rather than Linux
Yes, and the meme is which branch of christianity the OS is the equivalent of.
"Atheism" and "Spiritual but not religious" are not braches of christianity
โAtheismโ and โSpiritual but not religiousโ are not braches of christianity
Is the joke really that complicated?

I was unaware that the CoC would be cool enough to have motorcyclists.
Depends on the CoC.
It's kinda a weird one in a lot of ways.
