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.

Part of it too is companies not developing for Linux first. If user switched to Linux overnight and there was more demand the experience would get better exponentially when it comes to driver and hardware. Any OS can pretty much implement any feature for any hardware. There isn’t really any magic that’s unique to any of them. Just styling and interface.
