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 dunno, I use Garuda and it's an Arch distro. It's been super user friendly and I've only had to learn console stuff when I wanted to mess with stuff most casual users wouldn't be bothered with.
And maybe you would say, "well that's not really representative of a normal Arch install" but isn't that the point of different distros? That anyone can build on functionality to do something like make Arch more user friendly?
