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.

Windows 10 AME also feels very cozy, like Win 7, but its days are numbered unless I stop using internet on it.

Even Windows users are shitting on 11 and questioning using Windows.

Gods, I miss Windows 7 UI. I really dislike the push for everything to be flat nowadays. Aero, my beloved!
