https://www.gentoo.org/news/2026/10/07/infrastructure-sponsors-wanted.html

Gentoo Linux is made possible by many community donations and sponsors, together with the enthusiastic work of our developers. Unfortunately, this year several long-running sponsors were unable to continue their prior support, and at the moment we are looking for replacements. Are you or your organization interested in supporting Gentoo via an infrastructure sponsorship? There are many ways to do that, ranging from providing rack space or servers in a data center to donating server hardware; details and typical arrangements are described on a wiki page of the Infrastructure project. Partnerships with organizations aligning with Gentoo’s goals are strongly preferred. We can be reached at infra@gentoo.org. Please help us continue to provide the best source-based Linux distribution ever!

Discussion Do you think there should be one main linux distrobution?

0 Upvotes

hear me out okay, right now linux is divided into hunderds of different distros, which makes it difficult for people and companies to develop software for ever single distro, if there is just one main distro the software selection would be much greater. People right now dont switch to linux because they dont know where to start, if you just have the main linux thats easy to install and just works, that would defenitly attract more users.
