What advertising slogan would you give for Linux?
I though of:
Your hardware deserves better.
Also you can give some more realistic ones like my friend:
It just (not) works

Good one from back in the day (not mine): "In a world without walls and fences, who needs Windows and Gates?"
But it has a direct reference to it's competitors which won't be viable in 100 years when windows shuts down
With the most open CVEs, bugs and ports, anyway.
😂
That would be the slogan.
Linux. The Power of the Community.
I didn't come up with it and the picture is not mine. I just found it on the internet earlier.
"For slogan, please refer to the according man page"
more seriously maybe "Software it your own way"
So, RTFM?
I recently passed Linux Foundation System Admin and they had a weird Debian that just slapped me with
man not foundor something like thisI like it, but I think proprietary can tell it too.
"Your Computer".
I think that depends on the hardware but yes.
Yours to
make, yours to break.Good one!

I would totally play that
"I didn't want to play that game anyway."
More like use Adobe or Microsoft as I'm proud gamer since 2 years on Linux https://bazzite.gg/
For me that game was Rust and it was more 'Maybe for the best if I don't touch that game again'
What happened? Rust used to have a native Linux client a few years back (i.e. last time I tried it).
Somehow missed your reply until now.
They dropped support on the Linux version forever ago and moved to Easy Anticheat which DOES support being used through Proton but the devs won't enable it.
Help this is real
It is in fact GNU/Linux.
What if I use Alpine?
Dont
Then its Busybox/Linux
"It's terminal"
Join a Movement, not a Marketplace
It's a headache but it's your headache.
I could apply it to Windows too though.
When you install Windows, you don’t really control your computer. Microsoft does.
Windows Is a headache but it is my headache
same for legacy code lol
Free as in beer
Or
Free as in puppy
Like some kind of prostitute lover.
That is more like a general FOSS than Linux
Two out of 10 Linux users agree that
insert name hereis the best distroThat's optimistic
At least one.
Windows
"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."
ftfy
Plural.
Can't be arsed fixing that for you.
Everything I encountered that haven't worked:
And good news, Nvidia seems to have more or less fixed the second one a few months ago.
"We hope you like config files"
"I heard you like files... Everything is a file."
Plan9 would have some opinions about that.
Own your Computer
Hurts So Good
*Hurds
"It does exactly what you tell it to do."
"Own your computer" and "Free your computer"
The least annoying launcher for your web browser
Have it your* way.
*your way may involve several hours of configuration
Make Mac style advert showing everything from a touchscreen experience with fully integrated apps to the most advanced computing one could image
'all in your hands, have it your way'
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."
you don't even have to tell it 😎 Linux is the silent dangerous type standing in a shady corner
Batman runs Linux. Shouldn't you?
Buy it, own it.
Live, Laugh, Linux
Fiddle, Tweak, Reinstall.
Sovereign Computing
It’s yours.
“If you knew what it was, you’d be using it already.”
Wobbly Windows in a Windows-less World
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!
"Better learn to use the command line, kid"
Do it yourself
Just DYI.
Forget the hardware
YOU deserve better
Arch, btw.
That's Arch Linux specific slogan I am afraid.
Linux: "Freedom and innovation for all"
If you don't read the man pages, we're going to ban you from the chat.
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.
Build a Legacy, not a Lock-In
Linux: you've been using it for years and don't even know it
Think
DifferentFreely.Replace OS before they replace you. Linux - the last adventure.
Its my machine. I dont need to sign into Microsofts Terms and Conditions to be able to use my hardware.
Your computer needs a dose of FREEEEEEDOM
This seems to imply that Linux makes your computer produce oil
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
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.
Tailored for You, By You
I'd copy you and drop the hardware. Just: you deserve better
RTFW
Uh I guess we'd need to extend it to Linux + FOSS in general.
Power users: I think we should steal whatever the latest IKEA marketing team have come up with because the appeal is kinda the same as IKEA furniture where you feel more ownership over something having built it from the flat packed box your self.
Average users: does a degoogled chromeOS exist? You just need a video of someone playing with a tablet like interface, then choosing to postpone an update with no dark pattern om the textbox prompt.
One line slogan: Did you ever wish the people who made your software were more passionate about the product than their next promotion?
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.
This hurts in my first Gentoo installation. Sharp, precise, and accurate pain.
Be Your Own Tech Support
Linux/GNU: We put GNU where it belongs.
Probably thing valve does where all the other players in the market are so shit, you doing very little garners huge public support.
"Linux...
"Because you don't have to be the product"
"No overlords"
"What spying?"
"Infinitely extendable"
Which one do you like best?
You can fix it, really. :)
Can’t believe it’s not Windows.
Your hardware Your choice Your style
Take your digital freedom back!
Linux: it ain't Windows.
WHEEL OF LINUX!!! (I'll take Arch, by the way, Pat!)
...Among other jabs at Windows in the spirit of the old Mac vs. PC ads, or to be more apt, in the spirit of Sega's old ads picking on Nintendo in the '90s.
Also....

From Hobby to Hero: Linux Powers the Curious
When I started my own design for Tux I came up with "it's all about U" written on the repo where I've developed it (upstream isn't updated)
In hindsight it involuntarily highlights the difference between the open source and the free software movement pretty well, I'm definitely for the latter, but it is accurate to the product and its creator
"Maybe she was born with it. Maybe it's Linux, G"
Linux: Our Code of Conduct says we have to let you join us.

I use Arch, btw.
For the Mavericks and Makers
"Get judged by more advanced Linux users until you get good enough to do the judging"
improvements over the competition are black and white... and a little yellow.
Does Linux have competition? But I get your idea.
Linux: The Vi delivery system you've been waiting for! /s
"Be free"
Freedom.
Only if it's Mel Gibson "Frrrrreeeeddddooooooommmmmm"
At least it's not Windows?

Linux RPG?
Leave us alone, we don't need more users
Depends on what users.
The kind for whom stupid software with ads is made. The kind who give 0 stars to open source software on google play for dumb reasons. The ones who are offended by a program being named "GIMP" or "daemon".
Switch to linux and your kids is call
"Good luck with those drivers, bud!"
Lie to your (insert relative here) that Linux is faster and you install SSD to their computer with a penguin on it.
