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.

Now this is what I am talking about! Just get lemmy/kbin/etc to support embedded video from peertube at least and we are getting closer to the decentralized everything app!
I love how musk is trying to make X the everything app all on his centralized network, and here we are building a decentralized everything network with dozens of open platforms and good 3rd party clients outpacing whatever musk is trying to cook.
Free market at work, imo, Musk can cry all he wants about advertisements, but here we are supported entirely by donations
