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.

BC its WayWORSE, a lot of stuff don't install properly, and its missing that toolbar on the side, u can't set keybinds. And thus its more or less useless for playing videogames nearly all of the time. (For me at least.) Example, Pokémon unite. Its a moba and I can't move and attack at the same time cus there can only he one mouse at the same time. I'm glad it exists at the very least cus I can install the occasional app that doesn't have a Linux counterpart, like voyager for Lemmy for example. Not that many Lemmy apps on Linux and I'd rather use an app than the site personally.
