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 chose Pop!_OS as my first because I was worried about Nvidia drivers and everyone told me Pop was a safe bet. Stayed with it for about 3 weeks despite a lot of weird issues with audio drivers and just not liking a lot of the Ui even after customizing it heavily, before it completely shit itself one day and I couldn't even load a backup.
Went back to Windows for 2 months before trying EndeavourOS w/KDE and it's been my main for almost a year now.
