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.

They came to this place to get an answer from a person with firsthand experience, not to be told to ask an AI
I'm well aware of its capabilities and it can do a lot, undoubtedly. I just imagine that if they're going to a social media site to ask a question the goal is to have a person give them advice rather than being told to take the question elsewhere.
But it is what it is, my reply wasn't meant to be a diss on ChatGPT, it's a cool tool. Just personal preference at the end of the day. For some things I could see myself using ChatGPT for convenience, for other things where I'm not so hellbent on saving time I find it much more fulfilling to research and gain a better understanding through my own searches or from interacting with others and getting different human perspectives on a topic.
