NEVER used them - bad rep :-) People bitched and screamed about PostScript ... but it WAS a savior, a unifier. HP followed pretty fast with their own standard protocol. THEN it all got MUCH better. Until the 90s, you were probably better off with a SERIAL printer. The old, rugged, LOUD, OkiData pin printers come to mind. Only a FEW special codes to shift between limited print modes - the drivers were kinda easy to tweak. I think you can STILL buy those printers ... but now they're $$$ :-) Wide Centros ... SO many pins, MUCH harder to customize.

I'd forgotten how noisy it was. We had several sites that used a Digi with 4 serial ports for the stuff that still was RS-232. https://www.digi.com/products/networking/infrastructure-management/serial- connectivity/device-servers/portserverts The public safety industry isn't exactly cutting edge in general. Some of them do their shopping on ebay to keep the old equipment going. It got the job done 30 years ago and still does if you can find spare parts.

There's major airports in the US where you can still see those little dot-matrix Okis in active service, tucked away in a corner of the gate desk. Absolute champs.

I installed Linux Mint on someones computer, and this printer just appeared. I didn't even configure it. I thought why not, print a page, and it printed. The printer was on the network, and Linux found it and configured it without me doing *anything*.

The smaller nozzle prevents the distracted or dumb from filling the Subaru with diesel. Sadly it doesn't work the other way as a friend found out when his son filled the Merc diesel with unleaded. He got rid of the car soon after since he was used to acceleration that was less stately than the Merc's.

The Free Software world is a shining example of free-market economics in action, in a way that proprietary software is not: the barriers to entry are low. That’s why you have so few choices among proprietary software, and so many among Free software. The situation of having 300-odd Linux distros has been like that for something like 15 years, if I remember rightly. Basically, it’s gone well past the point where anybody could claim that this situation is somehow unsustainable. > At the moment, all cars that take unleaded petrol take the same size > fuel nozzle at the petrol station. And don’t forget, all the roads and road signs are standardized, as are all the controls in those cars. That gives you the freedom to own whatever car you want, and drive it on whatever roads you want, to go wherever you want. And then get rid of that car and buy another one, whenever you want. You have standardization with variety and interoperability, and minimal fragmentation. The correspondence in the Free Software world is that all those Linux distros are built on the same Linux kernel, mostly include the same common GNU userland core, and offer most of the same core apps. This gives you the freedom to run whichever distro you want, use it to do whatever you want. And then replace it with another distro, without having to throw away all the work you’ve done. > Now imagine that some doofus at a car company really thinks that the > nozzle should be 1" wider, so they build two variants of cars, one > slightly more expensive, and it only works at the pumps with the wider > nozzles.

Fragmentation in Linux becomes a barrier to entry. Software authors and vendors have complained about this for 15 years at least too. This situation is a bit better now. >> At the moment, all cars that take unleaded petrol take the same size >> fuel nozzle at the petrol station. > > And don’t forget, all the roads and road signs are standardized, as are > all the controls in those cars.

I've also packaged software for Fedora, and Debian so I can see the problems that software vendors face. You can forgo the package, just distribute binaries, but that is harder for people to install. Likewise with configuration. Having set up Linux systems for others, and servers, subtle differences become blockers when Distro X modifies the base software and the instructions, for a different distro don't quite work. These are not insurmountable, but pain points which increase cost. >> Now imagine that some doofus at a car company really thinks that the >> nozzle should be 1" wider, so they build two variants of cars, one >> slightly more expensive, and it only works at the pumps with the >> wider nozzles. > > Nobody would buy their product ... unless they had a really huge > advertising budget to tell everyone how wonderful it was, and why those > who don’t switch over from the common, perfectly-good standard are missing > out on something wonderful. > > Sound like anyone you know? Most people came into Linux when the distro landscape was already fragmented. No one would by the alternative nozzle NOW, but if cars were produced, almost from the beginning with different nozzles, with no "standard", then yes, I think people would be buying whatever variant appears to suit them because there is no canonical standard. Linux could have gone this way, if there the first distro was the sole distro for several years and gained mindshare as THE Linux.

The only “software authors and vendors” I have heard complain about the variety of Linux distros are the ones hawking proprietary products. The ones who do Free Software don’t have to worry, since it’s not their problem: it’s up to the respective distro maintainers to make the software available in the relevant packaging system. > Likewise with configuration.

Do you think somebody should step in and force an end to all this freedom? How would they go about it, do you think? Would moving to proprietary licences help?

Many people use it. Also, if the distro maintainers don't package your software, you either do it yourself, or leave it as an exercise to the user, which you cannot assume the user would know how to do it. >> Likewise with configuration.

Okay, so your argument for differences as a barrier of entry is "One has to read the documentation" and "default passwords can be different"? I mean, I'd understand if the complaint were "it's not well documented". -- Nuno Silva

Many people use it. That’s their choice, to be part of a relationship that inevitably turns abusive when they realize that the goals of the company making the product do not align with those of the ones consuming it. Being the result of exercising a free choice, I don’t feel the need to have any sympathy for those who go that way. > Also, if the distro maintainers don't package your software, you > either do it yourself, or leave it as an exercise to the user, which > you cannot assume the user would know how to do it. That’s too bad, if that distro doesn’t feel my software is wonderful enough to offer to their users in a convenient form. That’s their choice. I’m not big-headed enough to take it personally. >>> Likewise with configuration.

That one doesn’t make any sense. My Apache setups have never made use of MariaDB. Web applications being served up via Apache (or Nginx) yes, but that issue of DBMS usage has nothing to do with the Apache or Nginx configuration. They are two entirely orthogonal issues. > Also differences in system services, how they are configured.

After all the hot air you have expended on this issue, are you now just going to stop?

Well, choice means people are more likely to find something that suits their needs. Someone might feel at home with something like the latest GNOME, others may prefer a UI approach like that of the KDE3 era, others may want just a way to display terminal emulators and run UNIX-like utilities and a text editor of their choice. With commercial software, at least I myself have never seen a lot of choice. That said, my experiences have been a peek at macOS and some usage of Windows and Windows NT. That said, I'd say the proprietary software world can have more pronounced differences as barriers, and be more fragmented as a result. Why, again, did FAT become so popular for removable media, despite its shortcomings? YMMV, but calling the proprietary world something with less barriers to entry might be just wishful thinking? If it weren't for the MS monopoly, I bet a lot of authors and vendors wouldn't even bother with Windows (and now Windows NT) support, for example. -- Nuno Silva

Surely it wasn't fragmentation in the linux world that caused it :-) -- Nuno Silva
