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.

MX Linux, with XFCE. Has some tools built in that makes configuring the system so much easier. The package manager is solid with all the debian repos available, plus flatpaks. Sane DE defaults.
Does not use SystemD, but can be turned on at boot.
It is stellar. I no longer feel the need to distrohop. Yet... It has been awhile.
Also, for reason NVIDIA drivers don't load when I need to enter my encryption password, so life can be better.
I do not care about SystemD, and it seems everything would be easier if I chose a distro that uses it. I may just do that.
I have tried to like Fedora because it is excellent, but I always run into issues that annoy me. I used to adore Manjaro, but it just got worse over the years. Cannot stand it now. I just don't like Arch.
Maybe I will try Pop_OS! again.
