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.

Yeah all I see is 14 huge failures. :)
Linux version 6 is a bit of a stretch though since it's just the kernel. I guess they could have put Ubuntu 23 up there to make it "win"...
Fedora 39 is clearly superior to Ubuntu 23
I guess. I had lots of issues with Fedora in the past so can't recommend it personally but some people like it.
