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.

Advanced Distro-hopper over here: I am actually fine with cachyOS. If I want to leave systemd, only good alternative I found is artix. Someone tried their new stable release of 2026? Arch + openrc + Wayland + pipewire + KDE would be my usecase.
That's exactly what I'm using. Other than a few tweaks here and there, no complaints so far. Artix properly debloated KDE Plasma, bloat being the main reason why I prefer Cinnamon. Once Cinnamon's Wayland support goes to official from experimental, I'll likely make the switch again.
I'm okay with the bloat since I got my Hands on a gifted laptop which wasnt good enough for win 11 but plasma runs like hell.
Looks like I try the qt-community Version. Thx.
Oh yeah totally. Whatever Linux over Windoze any day.
