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.

The developer working on integrating network display functionality into GNOME Shell shared short video clip to the GNOME sub-reddit [...] the feature adds a “screencast” button to the row of actions in the Quick Settings menu. Clicking this opens a modal picker where the user can select any Miracast or Chromecast compatible displays on the network.

Just sharing a recent positive experience with bigger buttons: I just did some remote support because a printer wouldn't work. RustDesk worked great and thanks to the bigger buttons clicking them with awful latency wasn't so bad.

Yeah I guess they are practical and easier to push. There is always pros and cons. :)
