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.

I'd build my own. More seriously, I'd use a mac, but would pester all day, like the few weeks I tried macOS at work before bringing my own computer.
Setting up my weird keyboard layout :
sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
on debianSetting up a keyboard shortcut to launch a terminal with Meta+Return:
Using a tiling window manager:
install i3wm
yabai
on macOS is pretty cool as a tiling window manager. Not perfect, but not bad!
