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.

The build quality may not be that good but the technology and the designs are excellent. I say that as somebody that does not use macOS (well, not much).
As somebody that buys older hardware, I cannot wait to use Linux on Apple Silicon in a year or two. When I do, I will be immensely appreciative of all the effort that is going into it now. It will feel pretty open to me by that point.
Most importantly though, people put effort into the things that they want to. I am thankful that they have that freedom.
