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.

"... so much." Don't leave the important qualifiers out!
I could argue that it's the worst of the three... Appimage is awful.
No proprietary app store, no server to run, no additional software to install... truely stand-alone applications... what's not to like?
The truly stand-alone part is the worst part. It doesn't integrate with your system well and has no convenient way to keep apps up to date.
