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.

:-) BedrockLinux, my daily driver for a dozen years. :-)
woah, nice!
I tried it once, and it was hella impressive, but I didn't stick with it, I don't know why. It just seems a little too much for me.
It kinda fucks up your FS (not in a data-loss way, but it gets really messy): it was showing 3.2TB... on a 509gb partition of a 1tb ssd. Heck, I only have 3TB in my whole PC
reminds me of /proc always being 128TB for no reason
Different tools handle that differently. Takes a little extra eye adjustment to tease out the information from
df -h
, for example.that was from baobab... which is supposed to "just work"
Bedrock looks crazy impressive and ambitious but, adding to your point, I have to admit I keep forgetting it exists.
On that note, I'll add Vanilla OS.
