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.

Hmm, that's weird. I was able to run Stable Diffusion locally with Linux + RX6600.
Probably because I used Easy Diffusion. At first, I couldn't get the GPU acceleration to work, and I was constantly running out of RAM (Not using VRAM), so my system always froze and crashed.
Turns out it was a ROCM bug, that I don't know if it's fixed by now, but I remember "fixing it" by setting an environment variable to a previous version.
Then, it all worked really good. Took between 30 seconds to 2 minutes to make an image.
