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.

My WiFi on arch is so all over the place when it connects to my phone hotspot. Connects, disconnects, "oh what's the password again?" Otherwise router based WiFi is fine.
Actually the Bluetooth is somewhat even more reliable than the Windows one. And it waits for you to connect manually instead of auto connecting to that one speaker you happen to have on.
