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.

You're welcome! scratch and distroless are indeed basically the same thing, scratch being the 'official' docker minimal image while distroless is from google - as I'm more a Kubernetes user (at home and at work) than a Docker user, I tend to think about distroless first :) - my apologies if my comment was a bit confusing on this matter.
By the way, have fun experimenting with docker (or podman), it's interesting, widely used both in selfhosting and professional environments, and it's a great learning experience - and a good way to pass time during these long winter evenings :)
Oh, I see. Thanks for clarifying. And I've got to admit that "dockerizing" everything is a fun process indeed. :P
