I use Mint 21. Checkmate.
Nixos is at 23.11 :) Also, rolling releases are kinda fun: the latest commit so far is
46ae0210ce163b3cba6c7da08840c1d63de9c701which roughly translates to nixos-unstable 403509863565239228514588166489915404446713104129 :DLaughs in Fedora 39
Windows 98 enters the chat
Windows 2000 says hi to Windows 98
Windows Server 2022 kicks 2000 in the balls, does a line of coke, and crashes.
You could take the revision number. nixos-unstable has

Windows 98 has entered the chat.
They really went downhill after that.
Me with my Windows 2000 😏
Technically version 5.0
Fedora 39 anyone?
Shit takes like 30 minutes to update 😭😭
takes 2-3 min for me
This, but unironically used as a marketing trick:
There was no v1 of Oracle Database, as co-founder Larry Ellison “knew no one would want to buy version 1”
That’s why the first Oracle database is v2.
this is what happened to windows 9, too.
No, the problem with Windows 9 is that a lot of things compared the version with
9*as a catch all for windows 95 and 98, so they were worried with backwards compatibility.
non ironically, firefox did a jump in version numbers after firefox 4 because people were seeing the low number compared to other browsers, and would think they were behind technically.

I’m going to invoke Poe’s Law and not assume this is sarcasm.
I mean current version really doesn’t mean anything because people aren’t going to upgrade if the version they’re using is fine. I submit that this is a perfect example of correlation != causation. I may have gotten the order wrong on the not equal symbology since I haven’t used it in a while.
Also, are we talking Linux kernal versions? There are so many problems with this comparison.
Pfff my systemd is version 255.2-2, I am lightyears ahead.
The Linux Kernel version is at 6 point something, I think they’re working on version 7. That’s not the OS though, the current Ubuntu version under LTS is 22.04. That’s more than twice as much as Windows.
Note I had to get this information from Wikipedia because Ubuntu’s website is currently unusable corporate garbagepuke.
My phone is on 23. Nextcloud is on 27.
I’m Arch and so is my wife (actually) and it doesn’t have a version. We just roll … and today my dongled, wireless mouse has stopped moving. The buttons still work and my laptop touchpad works fine.
wtf!
My version is 20240107. Apple has some catching up to do.
This is why Bioshock Infinite is the best game ever made.
and to think windows had 2000 years ago…
