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.

Whats some good IPTV channels?
There's... a lot, and it depends on what you define as good. This isn't a bad place to start: https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv?tab=readme-ov-file
There's a large number of legal IPTV streams -- a lot of them are just the streams you would normally be able to access via Pluto, Plex, and other services. There's also a lot of public access/public media channels are legit and free All of the ones available at the link I posted should be legal. There are "pirate" IPTV streams out there, but I don't know any off the top of my head. I would check with the c/piracy community.
The really tricky part is getting an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) for free. Very few EPG providers are willing to give that away. You can roll your own for free but it's complicated enough that I basically gave up on it.
