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.

Just for anyone scrolling by, the article itself is clickbait. QT is not KDE and KDE uses the open source licensed variant of QT. They are also just giving the ability to easily put ads to applications in QT to give an easy way for developers to monetize their applications. I truly don't think KDE would be putting ads in their applications as they know the backlash would likely be huge and they might lose some userbase which in the Linux world is very hard to come by.
