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.

It is just preinstalling apps that you can get on your own.
They do provide installation technical support which is pretty unique and potentially a lot of work, given their target audience.
I thought it was okay but it is still using the older Ubuntu LTS 20.04 as it’s base.
I have no problem with anybody charging something, that has been one of the freedoms since the beginning.
