Azure Linux has genuinely got to be the worst linux distro ever

Azure Linux has genuinely got to be the worst linux distro ever

This crap is literally made for containers only, has no real drivers, yet was branded general-purpose cloud. I don't know how this crap is supposed to be running ai workloads when its so unreliable it doesnt have real repositories so you cant install drivers easily or anything, for nvidia you have to dig thru their site to get nvidia drivers working. It's very stripped out to the point it's unusable by default even in a server environment. This distro was created almost as if Microsoft wanted to show normies that Linux is just green text on black background. It's literally just fedora but worse, there's no point using it, even for containers there are distros like Alpine or Fedora's container images, so there's no use of this. All while Microsoft famously called Linux a cancer. Yes, if you implement Linux in such a terrible way, it is cancer! They literally confirmed this crap is in testing and not ready for production use. The community is supposed to be doing the free testing for them so that they can make more money from Azure while telling their own contributors to fuck off.

I need your help! Xiaomi is violating the GPL

The Poco F8 Ultra / Redmi K90 Pro Max (codename: Myron) launched November 26, 2025 on Android 16 - about 195 days ago.

Xiaomi has not released the kernel source for this device YET. This violates the GPLv2 license that the Android kernel uses (being a fork of Linux).

I contacted Xiaomi's open source team (MiCode on GitHub). No reply yet. Thanks to you guys the GitHub issue is growing in popularity.

What you can do:

  1. Upvote for visibility.

  2. Pressure Xiaomi into compliance.

  3. Like the GitHub issue / Create GitHub issues asking Xiaomi to release the source code

We want Custom ROMs, because we should be able to decide what our devices are able to do.

Help me annoy Xiaomi until they comply.
