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.

Thank you so much for this detailed explanation! It's very clear and you're so good expressing yourself! And don't worry for your post accidentally being posted half-way, it happened to me too, in fact there's a deleted comment in this thread, for your same reason 😂
Anyway, I definitely must try this tablet. I am skeptical as you were, but I must give it a shot since you've had such a nice and productive experience. I might find out a store where I can try it or, alternatively, I might ask a friend of mine, who likes to draw, because she maybe has a tablet like this (that you connect to the computer).
Thank you again for your suggestions!
In order to avoid to spam too much here, may I contact you privately?
Make sure to check the return policy for Wacom or whichever reseller you end up going with. Some allow you to return electronic devices (if in good state, of course) up to 30 days or so after the purchase. If that isn't possible, you can always try to resell it in the second-hand market and make most of your money back, there are plenty of websites for that (from global ones like ebay to regional platforms; I tend to prefer the latter). But if your friend has one of these (or similar) give it a try!
And yeah, feel free to reach out to me via Matrix or e-mail! You can also try other platforms listed in my website, but I don't check those as often.
