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.

I'm on Linux from way back when Mandriva was badass. Because of work I spent many years on Windows, from 95 to Windows 7. Returned to Linux in the Form of PopOS and Linux Mint.
Fast forward to today, been running Fedora or a spin for the last 2 years, with the eventual distro hop only to land back on Fedora.
My wife and I both run Fedora Gnome on our work PCs, Bazzite on my gaming laptop, and my 10 years old daughter runs Nobara on her laptop.
All in all, Fedora is always where I come back to. No regrets.
