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'm glad it's back, but I don't really see a reason to switch. What does it offer that alternatives don't?
I daily drove it for a couple years on my last laptop before it broke, but the main draw was it’s the budgie DE and weekly updates that kept things recent but still pretty stable. Overall a good experience, but I felt like trying OpenSuSe when I got my new laptop.
