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.

Wubuntu? https://wubuntu.org/
I feel like there is a scary amount of copyright infringement going on to make it look THAT much like Windows 11.
IDK about copyright, but the amount of times they refer to themselves as "Windows Ubuntu" feels like it's probably trademark infringement. A reasonable person could easily read this website and mistake it for an official MS product.
damn! that is quite the impressive windows veneer going on there. did not know about this distro (and I find the win 10/11 UI to be a whole lotta "meh", so not personally interested), but I am sure there are others who would be. interesting link to throw, hand grenade style, into a distro flame war.
A little too close for comfort 😬
