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 switched to KDE neon, after being disappointed how far behind Ubuntu was, again, with KDE.
Snaps are teeth grinding slow crap that I always disable and remove first thing
SystemD still aucks, over a decade later, and always managed to add yet another thing to its bloated corpse causing yet more hours of work for me to do basic setups that shouldn't take more than 30 seconds... But it's everywhere and basically nearly impossible to avoid st this point. Such is life, I guess?
Systemd is not that bad. It's pretty stable, modular and frees up a ton of time for OS developers. Sure, Alpine's init system is faster but it also has fewer features.
Systemd always causes me more extra work that I don't want to have to do, but here we are.
