Bureau of Open Source Grievances

Est. 2001 · Serving the Linux community with the same warmth and efficiency as a government office that hands you a grenade and says "take a number."

Welcome, Disgruntled Citizen

Complaint Department sign with a grenade labeled number 1 and a hand pointing saying Take A Number
Our customer service model, visualized.
Tux the Linux penguin drinking from a crushed Windows XP juice box that says We suck more and that's guaranteed
Head of Beverage Acquisition, hard at work.

The Bureau was founded when someone realized that yelling at closed-source software was less cathartic than watching a penguin drain a Windows XP carton through a straw. Today we combine dark humor, operating system tribalism, and weapons-grade bureaucracy into one convenient webpage for your testing needs.

Current system status: PARTIALLY FUNCTIONAL (by design)
