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.

i liked his takes a lot, he didn't hesitate to call out fossbro bullshit.
dude needs a break though. no way around it.
Please define "fossbro" I have never heard anyone use that before
gendered insults on my lemmy?!😅
I don't know what a "fossbro" is. Me questioning it has nothing to do with a word being "gendered" as you say. It could be "fossthey" "fosssis" or whatever variation, I don't care. And I don't believe the person who used the term "fossbro" was talking about gender either. "Bro" is used as a genderless word often times similarly to "dude" or even in some cases "man." Why you trolling? And bad at it at that.
i never said you were being gendered or whatever, why are you accusing me of trolling? i’m referring to the word itself after you started discussion of the word itself 🤷♀️
