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.

And I am not. They stuck with old tech stack and do much of pointless drama. But wish them luck, they has their niche and are quite popular.
I've been using Mint for years now and I'm blissfully unaware of whatever drama is going on, or went on. It's an OS people, not a vanguard of political or philosophical ideology.
Not really, people treat their distros like rednecks with a confederate flag. I’ve always found it worrisome.
