Obscure as in “only for a very specific purpose and nothing else”?..

Well, there is the Mircrosoft linux distro for their azure cloud

I guess DD-WRT as distro for router is also kind of obscure. Or the more general openWRT for embedded systems.

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.
