The SHOCKING Truth Behind Linux Utils That No One Talks About!
Look, I get it—rewriting coreutils in Rust sounds cool on paper. But let’s be real: Uutils is a trojan horse wrapped in good intentions. By trying to replace GNU coreutils, it’s undermining one of the most foundational pieces of software in Linux, all because some devs have a problem with the GPL. This isn’t about security or efficiency—it’s about licensing politics, and it’s a dangerous road to go down. Even Distrotube missed the mark on this one. Let me break down why Uutils is actually bad for open source, and why the bigger picture should have every FOSS advocate concerned.
