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.

Am I dullard for just using Lutris? Like literally any time I want to install a program or game I will use Lutris' GUI to select the installer, select a prefix directory, and so on. Once it's done installing, then I switch the target EXE to the actual program I want. It isn't exactly convenient but it has been reliable. So I haven't tried any other approach.
As long as it works. I still go back to "play on Linux" once in a while to look back on the not so minimal GUI, has a certain charm to it.
