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.

Without having tried typst myself, I would still recommend learning LaTeX, if you’re ever looking to publish in a scientific journal; most journals accept submissions in either Word (which in my mind is a very painful tool to use, especially when it comes to typesetting and equations) or LaTeX. They then typically convert the input to some internal format, but are probably unlikely to add support for new formats.
If you only ever intend to write documents for your own purposes, use whichever format you like the best; I personally use Emacs Org-mode and LaTeX export.
