    Yeah, but then why still put “Linux running on an NES?” as the title? It’s just click bait

      Would you give the video more than a glance if the title was “Operating System Similar To Linux Running on an NES?” I know I’d just scroll past it compared to the original title.

        He probably could have just said Unix instead of Linux. I get why he didn’t, and it’s not that big of a deal, just slightly annoying

      because linux is now interchangeable with “unix like”
      really it’s wrong to call linux linux, linux is just the kernel… gnu/linux is okay…
