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.

I think it's time someone created a /c/fuckwindows or something because this community basically shits Windows every day. (Not that I don't appreciate it, but I think that should be a better place for it).
!Linux@lemmy.ml needs a bit more focus on Linux tech, news and discussion instead of Windows and Linux memes. We have !LinuxMemes@lemmy.world for the latter.
I agree
Same thing with /c/Firefox and Chrome.
Windows Shitpost Wednesday and removals every other day of the week.
Mods need to get on this.
