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.

Came to say what most have already: It works already as well / better than Gnome, doesn't require superduper hardware, stable, why the feck did I wait until 2025 to try it? Not looking back.
honestly I would say it hasn't really gotten into it's groove/good until like a few months into this year. It's gotten A LOT better than what it was. So waiting until now to try it was a good call actually.
