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.

Eh, I get what you mean but I disagree.
That is sort of saying that if someone want to learn Swedish, but since they don't know any Swedish, it is better to start them on Norweigan first.
If UFW had used a similar syntax to that of iptables, then it would be a decent way of doing it, but in this example I disagree with you
nobody wants to learn Swedish here. they want to be understood in a community that knows both Swedish and Norwegian, and if Norwegian is easier, they can learn just that
then it wouldn't be Uncomplicated anymore
