Linux, when you want to tell the computer to shut the fuck up and just do it's job.
you don't even have to tell it 😎 Linux is the silent dangerous type standing in a shady corner
It’s yours.
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"
Linux: "Freedom and innovation for all"
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 hardware Your choice Your style
more powerful than a speeding loco motive
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
That would be the slogan.
With the most open CVEs, bugs and ports, anyway.
Fun facts:
- The backend of Microsoft's biggest money maker Azure runs on Linux: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/microsoft-showcases-the-azure-cloud-switch-acs/
- The most-used OS inside Azure is Linux: https://thenewstack.io/microsoft-linux-is-the-top-operating-system-on-azure-today/
- Microsoft is the second biggest contributor to open source software: https://opensourceindex.io/
- Microsoft has published their own Linux distro: https://github.com/microsoft/azurelinux
- Microsoft has published a support page on how to install Linux: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linux/install
The OS wars are over, and Linux won.
"For slogan, please refer to the according man page"
more seriously maybe "Software it your own way"

"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."
It just works (on my machine)
ftfy
Plural.

Two out of 10 Linux users agree that insert name here
is the best distro
Own your Computer
"Own your computer" and "Free your computer"
The least annoying launcher for your web browser
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."
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
