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 wish kde and krohnkite handled onscreen keyboards properly together. the windows just resize and glitch the fuck out unless its the sole window open.
edit - im a kde diehard fan and i never use it without krohnkite. but these days im preferring using niri + a custom mix of dms and noctalia shell. you should check out the shells, they give nearly a full desktop experience these days.
