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.

This was me until the kubernetes transition occurred. Now I ssh into nothing unless it's a personal box. I've become a zsh convert.
I've been casually transitioning to kubernetes and zsh, but I'm just too comfortable with bash and my os running on bare metal. (He says with more than half his apps switched to containers.) It's simple, effective, and is always available. I should take the plunge, someday.
FWIW, once I got deep enough into it, the thought of going back to the old way seemed like a crazy idea. I don't want to manage servers like that again if it can be avoided. YMMV.
