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.

Try running multiple monitors with different resolutions or gaming... Just in general (no seriously, people who think that gaming on X11 is better than wayland are fcking insane... No tearing, having to disable compositor to get more than 20fps, just works) in X, bet you'll have a great time. And yes, Nvidia is the only reason why imo anyone should still be using X (if they don't wanna use gnome)
