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.

Let's find 2 more of you then :)
No one wants to 😞 . I have over 90 github notifications alone in the span of several days, each of them requiring at least 5 minutes of response or investigation. I just want to code.
I'd be happy to help if possible.
I'm not an amazing coder, but I could definitely review PRs or issues in my downtime.
I have a feeling you're about to get a lot of offers for help in the coming weeks!
Thx!
