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.

Let's be honest here
I like Linux as much as the next guy
...... But a violent kick to the 'nards is still more pleasant than Windows 11, so this is a "Luigi Wins By Doing Absolutely Nothing" scenario.
Yep, which also explains why a distro that comes with Cinnamon won...
Now, now. Cinnamon is a perfectly competent DE. Gets out of the way. Does what it's supposed to.
Let us not treat it like it is Gnome.
I don't like GNOME, but I've honestly had consistently worse experiences with Cinnamon.
I like Windows 11. It has the best HDR support of any OS, bar none. AutoHDR is a godsend.
My only complaint is about the taskbar, which I fixed by installing StartAllBack.
