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.

Game support.
Also arm support, I really wanted to use asahi but a lot of my apps just dont support it. I was going to look into recompiling some of the open source apps I use like my authenticator but havnt gotten around to it yet.
What game? I used to need to occasionally boot into Windows to play games, but it has been over a year since the last time I had to do this.
