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 tried it on my main desktop after dumping windows. Tried ot along with CachyOS and Bazzite.
CachyOS was too bleeding edge for me.
MX was very easy to work with, but I could not get a lot of my gaming stuff working with my limited skills. Things like HDR was not working well on my monitor, everything just looked washed out. Could not get it converted to Wayland, etc. It did not support 5.1 audio over Spidif on my sound card.
Settled on Bazzite with plasma which was similarly stable, while having the gaming, display and audio stuff correctly configured out of the box.
