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.

Yep! I used it as a daily driver for ~a year, switched off to try something new, and have recently switched back indefinitely.
Only distro I’ve ever switched back to after leaving, and that’s because it’s where I plan to stay. It really lives in such a sweet spot of up to date, stable, and simple/hackable.
With a nice handbook, friendly community, runit, xbps-src, and multi lib/arch support, Void is truly great.
