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.

Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm mostly talking out my ass. But as far as I know, it's a new DE that's being written in Rust using the iced toolkit. It looks like they're aiming to be Wayland native without the X baggage. It's been a while since the last full Pop release (20.04), so it will be nice to get the rest of the OS upgraded as well.
Ah, ok. That makes more sense. I really like the OS so far. Made my first leap into Linux only mid 2023ish. And it's been awesome!
I am glad you are enjoying it so far! It has a bit of a learning curve, but it has improved significantly since I was first getting into it in high school around 2004. Wow... already 20 years.
