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.

The open source Apple Music player Cider is getting closed source and windows only.

What do you/will you use as an alternative (besides Spotify)? Is there already an active fork?

I was wondering this myself, I currently use Cider to listen to my own music while playing games on my SteamDeck. Not sure what alternative I’ll be able to go to since I’m not leaving Apple Music.
