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.

'it came to me in a dream' has got to be a pretty unique reason for switching to Linux
I kept closing tabs and they kept reopening with ads. It must be a sign.
sounds pretty realistic to me tbh
😂 I've done weirder things based off dreams. I'd say this is reasonable
Are you sure that was a dream?
Are we sure this isn't a dream?
I get my news from the only reliable source and I recommend going with MX Linux.
