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.

Honest question. In the era of collaborative document editing on browser-based platforms, who is using this software and what are they using it for? I work with documents for my job and it's been literally decades since I used a local standalone word processor.
I need local font support far, far more often than I need collaborative editing. Plus, call me old, but I don't like storing everything on a server in Virginia for Google to read.
You're not old.
You just haven't sold out.
