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.

definitely on board with bazzite for gaming computer. it seems to do well with everything else I throw at it also
I've been running it on my main PC (framework laptop) for I dunno 6 months now? And it's been great.
Distrobox is dope, and "rpm-ostree" is super useful.
Aside from that, it's incredibly stable. And games pretty much just work.
I've seen people say that "it's not for tech people, but good for newbies," and I have to disagree. Just because it works most of the time without having to tinker (but you can if you want) doesn't mean it's for noobs... That's how your PC is supposed to function.
