Linux

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.

Task manager is one of the few Windows apps that works really well. Glad to see the design making it's way to Linux.

You mean Ctrl+Shift+Esc? I don't see a problem with this?

I was talking about Windows... Linux DEs typically allow you to customize keybinds.

Yes, except that in Windows 11 they messed it up completely by making it laggy and adding the functionality to randomly crash itself.

Have you used Windows 10?
