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.

Muscle memory!
As soon as I work in a terminal I use shift+ins instinctively, most programs still send the copy to both buffers if they have a "copy" button/function but some now only send to primary and you get some old text selection thrown into your terminal instead of the command the program helpfully copied for you.
Shift/Ctrl+Ins/Del unite! 😁 And yes, muscle memory is a powerful drug. Been using it since before Windows came along, kept using it after. Especially useful after I switched to Dvorak (and yes, I know of Colemak).
