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.

Remember Firefox’s SSB that got removed before anyone knew about it since no one was using it, since it was behind a
about:configflag, that users didn’t know about so they didn’t use it so Fx removed it? Weird-ass circular logic from Mozilla. I would have loved that PWA feature.Currently I'm using ungoogled-chromium on Linux just for PWA because of this decision made by Mozilla 😔
Well don't, use Mint's Web Apps application, instead.
