    It’s more logical than Linux’s version numbering system:

    Does the major version number (4.x vs 5.x) mean anything?

    No. The major version number is incremented when the number after the dot starts looking “too big.” There is literally no other reason.

      And «too big» for Linus is around 20.

      See that’s totally logical, but it makes more human sense than computer sense.

      It’s logical if Linus has some numbers autism

        Hmm, guy who wrote his own kernel because he didn’t like the ones that existed. I’m sure he’s totally neurotypical. /s
