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.

oof on the expensive side but might have to do it. Were you able to install open wrt on it?
Yeah they were pricey, I should have mentioned that. I did not attempt that install. Wanted to just get it up and running first without any of my usual shenanigans.
How is the management of them ? I see they shout about their app but can I just login using a proper keyboard on a computer to setup things like DHCP easily? How much is hidden behind a subscription service (the biggest frustration with my eero's currently)?
No subscription so far. The setup wasn't super easy but I wouldn't say it was difficult. And tbh I think I made it harder than it needed to be. I did most the setup on my phone.
