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.

6.1 isn't out yet, and I can't wait for 6.2 already.
Genuinely feels great to be hopeful about some parts of technology/software like this. I eagerly look forward to an update from KDE and sometimes GNOME.
Compare that to Google, Microsoft, any other public big tech, I start to just question why I'm not living in the forest as a new member of a Bigfoot extended family.
Every update on Google or MS: Oh god please no.
Every update on FOSS apps, Linux: Give me more daddy.
Gnome updates are like god playing dice.
