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’ve been using Linux between 2018-2020 and on and off between 2020-2023 and regained daily status on November last year. It’s been great, but some things like lacking a proper office replacement (Only Office (FOSS), FreeOffice (Free as in beer), and WPS Office (Free as in beer) are all getting closer) are a bit limiting. Some stuff like lacking VRR and HDR were annoying (getting fixed now) and gaming has been improving. Game compatibility sometimes is a bit of a sore spot, but it’s been getting ever easier and honestly, haven’t had issues with NVIDIA drivers under wayland
