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.

Not really, all the AI stuff is off by default and doesn't really nag you all too much...
I did find this fork which removes all the AI and telemetry. You’d be surprised how much of it is there.
Not sure about the AI component but telemetry can be turned off with 1 line in the Zed config file afaik.
