Where does “Grup Yorum” come from?

[Member alguno324178]

Hello again. I wanted to ask a somewhat trivial question.
Only that they generate me doubts.

We know that in Linux there are many distributions and some are created by certain programmers from a single country (no need to give names). I was struck by “Grup Yorum”. What language is?

I looked it up in the translator and he told me he was Turkish.
Is this so? Are the creators of AntiX Linux Turkish?

I have no problem with anyone, I just wanted to know out of curiosity from which country (if it is from a single country) AntiX was created.

Perhaps it is a collaboration of several programmers from different countries.
Anyway. The distribution is great, I am very satisfied, but it gave me that question.

Greetings.

I small dive into search engines would uncover that antiX is a Greek distro. Long story short, anticapitalista, it’s main Developer is from the UK, living in Greece. I guess the rest of the Team all from all over. I’m not a developer, just a contributor, and I’m from Portugal. People that help translate antiX to their language are literaly from all over the world… Brazil, African coutries, etc.

Grup Yorum is indeed a Turkish group. As I understand it, they are fighting for political freedom in the home country. All of the names of the antiX versions are tributes to people who fought against political repression. I believe it was the previous version which was named after Manolis Glezos, who was part of the Greek resistance during WWII. Then there was Marielle Franco, a Brazilian who fought against police brutality. I learned a lot of interesting things studying these names.

Wow, this distribution has a long history behind.
Thank you mate!

Bye-bye! (I don’t want to use always the same words at the end: “regards”, “greetings”, hehe. I had thought “see ya”, but it sounds kinda weird. XD)

Hello alguno324178,

“Wow, this distribution has a long history behind.
Thank you mate!”

You seem to like knowing the story, I like it too and I value the story a lot. Here are the threads about the “history of antiX” that I managed to gather from here on the forum:

Hello Marcelo too. No problem with the links. If well my native lenguage isn’t english (I think you understood quickly that I’m from a latin language (although not portuguese)), more or less i can read and write in english. Well, this is written in english, hehehe.
Anyway. Thank you very much for the info.
So far all of you have been very kind to respond me quickly and more thinking that I am new here and with the distro. I really appreciate it.

Saludos hermano! (Saudações irmão)

Thank you Marcelo. No problem. The truth is that in the past, or some/many years ago, I was a disaster reading/writing and above all speaking english.
Well, it happens that once I made a website on facebook about metal music, and I had a “partner”. Well, he was Slovak, and I was also in music groups where due all of they were/are from different countries, the only way was to write in English.

There I met a French woman (I learned French as a child but I don’t remember anything), an Icelandic woman, and other people, even from Malaysia. And I spoke as I could. Obviously they had an excelent level of English.
In fact, some of they spoke several languages. And when I put a Polish Linux distribution (some will know which one I mean) the administrators very kindly answered my questions also in English, obviously. I don’t know nothing of polish. Well, and seeing pages of memes and comments in English or also on YouTube, all that made me progress a lot (simply: with practice).

However many words I don’t know them or I forget them easily and I have to search for them in google translate.
Sometimes google translate, translates badly, but I know where I have to correct it to make it as real as possible.

So there’s no problem. I admire how Brazilians can speak Spanish so easily and on the other hand, I mean: an Argentine, Uruguayan, Chilean, Spanish or wherever that speak Spanish may find it much more difficult to speak Brazilian Portuguese.

I don’t know, maybe it’s my imagination. But I hear brazilians speak Spanish very fluently and that is not their native language, of course.
Well, thanks for everything and good morning. Greetings.

(sorry for extending myself so long)

AntiX Greek roots are very interesting and its influence had spread world-wide.
I’m not sure, but suspect many ex-pats are living in a small multi-curtural region of Greece.
