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.

They released their desktop environment publicly, which imo was the main reason to use it
I never found elementary really worked that well for me, though pantheon is lovely
It was a PITA on Arch because the Debian roots didn't play well.
I canned all usage many years ago.
What's a PITA sorry? Never heard of that
I've used pantheon on nix before and it worked perfectly, can't say for other distros
Pita= pain in the ass
Ah makes sense. I installed hyprland on arch then jumped to nix when I couldn't be bothered with it lol
