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.

Raytracing performance. Though once I get my fill of cyberpunk that will fade.
The ease of being able to bork stuff when installing packages. I've borked my ability to run games through proton in some way. Between installing native and runtime Steam, and installing Waydroid and its kernel extensions I've made games not work where they are just fine on my Steam Deck. Now I gotta reinstall which kind of sucks and I don't have time for it.
