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.

That's a long list of changes, wow.
Personally, I'm not considering Vanilla OS just yet. It does too many things in a custom way. I am however keeping an eye on the project, since they have interesting ideas and they're making progress in the area of immutable distributions (which will be the future I figure).
Yeah in an it class I mentioned vanilla os and my teacher said the same thing
