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.

Fedora Workstation ❤
@matl @LemmyPistolero nice stuff
I like fedora workstation too. Gnome took some getting used to but it’s actually pretty productive once I got the hang of it
@giffybiss @matl I love gnome, but use kde. The reason is the gnome developers deciding to limit theming and their unwillingness to allow windows to remember their positions and sizes.
That is important to me and part of every OS, yet they think it shouldn’t be allowed. Makes no sense to me.
