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.

No it doesn't. I choose to use the command line because it's more efficient which is entirely different.
fully agreed. shure a barebones install of just the distro and no DE needs command line but once you have the DE you in theory never need it again. but i still prefer Entering a command. faster and more efficient instead of navigating 1000 menus
