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.

Arch, Void, Arch, Gentoo, Arch, Arch,...you're all making me feel like a basic removed.

Super surprised to see the number of void linux here in this platform

[–] Ghast@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

There's a lemmy.ml/c/voidlinux community as well.

But yea, I once met a Void user at a party, and it seems like any number above '0' is a surprise.

Not gonna lie, the fact that I can see all these neofetch images in the comment section has me sold on Lemmy over Reddit.

This is my dualboot install on my old laptop that I used in high school. The trackpad is chipped, and I only use the Windows install for those pesky pieces of invasive proctoring software in use in my college courses. The Mint install, I primarily use for downloading stuff (Persepolis) and data recovery (Because Windows shits itself if you dare plug in a damaged drive).

What are you using to generate that?

[–] Ekis@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

It's a terminal program called neofetch. Some of the other screenshots use a similar program called pfetch.
