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.

It's not impossible to change, people alter it all the time. E.g. with Gradience. Either way, it still wouldn't make it enshitification.
Enshitification != when an app from an open source project has a theme that's harder to change.
Yawn. The usual "hur dur what's Gnome removed this time???" line that doesn't even make any sense. Go look at changelogs for Gnome updates and you'll see that meme is bullshit. Stuff was removed in the Gnome 3 migration, what 13 or 14 years ago? It's time to move on.
And again, still nothing to do with enshitification even if Gnome were trimming features out all the time, which they aren't.
You people really need to learn what enshitification means instead of just latching onto the newest buzzword and applying it to everything. It's like when companies call everything AI now lol
