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.

Are physical keyboards like that really even faster? I would just buy a split 40% keyboard and out one in each of my pockets before I would do this tbh.
If you have been texting on a touch screen phone screen for about 10 years like many of the younger generations, I would say no. However people still get about 60 wpm or more on this. I've gotten faster on the keyboard case but still think I'm faster on touchscreen
