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.

Linux mint is a good, "click first" distro that won't break without root + will be easy for her to use. For something with a more modern desktop and more recent updates, Bazzite is really good at just working and (in my experience) has never broken
Bazzite might be what i go for the more i look at it. Thanks
I like bazzite!
Bro I'm the lead developer and I'm just now seeing this, just accept you called the viral marketing wrong.
We've grown to the point that when I market something, I tell people not to listen to me because I'm biased.
Its popular rnow because of all the handhelds I think
I mean it's not perfect but what is?
I tried MX Linux for a while, it was okay. did I miss something?
I tried mx for 7 minutes. it installed nvidia drivers and that killed it. off to the next distro I hopped, knowing the problem could have been easy to fix. shame, it seemed interesting.
Dude you might be paranoid....
So you were born today then?
Any particular you're against it?
"Someone mentions a distro they like" ≠ shilling. I use Bazzite and have been for months. Before that, used Nobara, EndeavourOS, and vanilla Fedora, along with a number of others I tried when I was distro-hopping. Wholeheartedly believe that Bazzite is currently the best generally-available Linux distro for gaming and is up there for general use. It's not perfect, but nothing is - it gets close for the use-cases I mentioned, though.
You know the build scripts which turn Fedora Kinoite into Bazzite are all open on GitHub, right..... 🤦
I have tried most known distros but not bazzite, yet. might be the next one on my distrohop journey since everyone recommends it. hope it works better than fedora kde, it does not get along with my hardware AT ALL
