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.

If you're looking for random posts on Linux terminal and tools then I'll do some self promotion: https://www-gem.codeberg.page
Don't expect for regular posting or any professional advice, it's just my personal experience and thoughts shared with 10 people on the planet :) Maybe 11... I can find a chair for you to join.
Thank you very much, this is precisely the type of blog I've been looking for! I'll be more than happy to take the chair :D
Welcome :) Any feedback is much appreciated. I love sharing with people (that's actually why I have this blog for).
