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.

No proprietary drivers are needed, but some fine-tuning might be in place. Have s look here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Lenovo_ThinkPad_T480
You start your comment with an @ to their username, and your domain name ends on “-stodon”...
Are you posting to Lemmy from Mastodon? Is that possible?
EDIT Also, OP, check out Archwiki, that's a great source! (in this case you can just view this person's link, but you can treat AW as a public Linux library in the future)
It mostly is! Mastodon users can follow Lemmy communities like they're users and then it shows as toots on their feed, and the comments look like replies.
That's awesome!
Darn cool, had no idea. Will test this
