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.

KDE is fucking vomit. I do not want one zillion dependencies for Dolphin along with its buggy garbage Baloo. KDE Connect atleast has GSConnect for GNOME with limited dependencies making it tolerable. I tried what you said last year, and it did not work.
I want to be able to sort videos by bitrate, for example, something which I can do natively in Windows Explorer, or use TC Extended under WINE. Only solution that worked, and I hoard data, and am a Windows-Linux dual user. (https://lemmy.ml/post/511377 This will give you an idea of my experience.)
