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.

Easy and fearless updates
I wish PiKVM were based on NixOS. As it's used like an appliance, people are not expected to customize the image. Or even regularly install updates. I always fear it'll break and sever my connection to my server. I'd have a lot more peace of mind if I could just redeploy my custom wireguard-enabled config.
