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 know I've heard a lot of people say that. And i tested it with bspwm, sure I was saving some ram but when you add all the applets, compositor, bar and notification daemons and all the configs it adds up to the same amount of ram being used as sometching like KDE. I didn't notice a lot of difference other that more time being spent on configuring the wm than using it. It was fun tho.
