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.

I spent ages looking for a decent Bluetooth adapter. Those I tried all worked under Linux, but the either the range wasn't great, or there were occasional drop-outs or just basic annoying issues.
I then found this on Amazon and it's perfect. I know the pitch says it doesn't support Linux, but it works with my Debian 12, KDE 5.27 box perfectly without having to faff with finding drivers; it just got recognised and worked first time.
I've connected my SteelSeries headset to it, a portable speaker and everything I try just works. The antenna give it fantastic range too.
