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'm still noob when it comes to running Linux. Debian has always been my favourite - just the philosophy behind it, but also the stability and broad usage. First OS book I read fully was on Debian. Then coming to try using Debian, it failed me (some things didn't work and I couldn't figure out how to fix it) multiple times. However, Debian 12 was the turning point and Debian 13 seems to work at least as good.
