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.

I've been using Fedora Kinoite for a few months now. Before that, I also hopped between different distros quite a bit, including Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora Workstation, openSUSE. To be honest, I really appreciate the immutable nature of Kinoite and maybe that is why I am really happy with the experience. Even "normal" Fedora Workstation caused a lot of problems during my usage and with Kinoite, nothing like that so far. So I can really recommend it.
There's only one really small problem I've noticed, which is a problem with the rendering of some fonts on web pages (e.g. lemmy.zip). These fonts are not rendered correctly, or are replaced with some default fonts, and they just look weird. There was nothing like this in openSUSE KDE, so I assume the problem is with Kinoite itself, as I have this problem on two machines. However, it is so rare (I only noticed it on two websites) that it can be ignored.
