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.

Idk... it sort just works for me. I'm not great at nix itself but putting gnome in the config and a few apps in my environment was easy. If you want to avoid command line nixos will be tough but I think for a beginner who is going to learn how normal distros work anyway, might as well learn nixos if you're interested in it.
