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.

Side note: do try out Firefox sync. It will only take a minute to setup, is pretty secure and most importantly saves your bookmarks, history, passwords, ... so you don't end up where you are today again. HTH
I get that it can be convenient, but I don't want another account. Everybody wants me to sign up for everything, and my browser is not something I have a desire to sign up for. I already have bitwarden for my passwords. Losing my bookmarks and history is annoying, but it's not something that should be happening anyway. I'm more concerned about my software uninstalling itself.
Well good thing is your Firefox profile should still be on the disk?
