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.

Remove snap < caused loads of shit back in the day, now it's an extremely slow installation system that wants to force me to use it. Fuck you.
Remove systemd < promised to be a super fast init system, took over loads of shit it has nothing to do with and ended up being nothing faster at all. Now my logs are sometimes in actual log files, you know, easy text, sometimes they're in the headache callled journalctl. I always change my SSH server port (Ubuntu server) that was a quick config file change and restart ssh, now it's making systemd files, and 10 minutes to do. Its a constant headache and I fucking hate everything about it
