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.

That's fair. Powerlevel10k actually has a very smart feature for this called transient prompt that removes the first line full of info from every executed command. It's hard to explain. There is a screen recording in the README I have linked.
That sounds really cool! Do you know if I could do with default zsh?
I'm sure you can since powerlevel10k is also written in pure zsh. I have no idea how to do it or how difficult it would be, however.
