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.

Steam, gog and epic games all work. Some run better then on windows, others require a tinker step.
You can run and install most exes, even pirated games using Lutrius.
Blazing fast. I have sm called hyprland sway and win11 feels like the stone age compared.
Best of all: COMPUTERS ARE FUN AGAIN You learn so much but its intuitive enough you don't even notice.
