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.

Pretty much how I feel about it too. It's not like I invented anything here, I mostly copied it from others or the docs. I will share snippets with people if it helps them but I'm not publishing everything either. Might need to look into yadm at some point.
YADM is essentially git so about the only thing you need to remember is to use
yadminstead of git when managing your dotfiles.
