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.

I fully support people playing around and possibly soft-breaking their things just for the heck of it.
Oh, I don't disagree. I've definitely done some of that. I think I installed i3 or awesomeWM back on LM19.x/20.x. However, this is a guide that says things like, "For a smooth and trouble-free installation". It seems to be aimed at a general audience when I think those people should just be re-directed to a KDE-distro.
It’s a great learning experience. And if you’re diving into Linux, then learning things is going to have to happen sooner or later, and it doesn’t stop. So maybe consider it a prerequisite.
