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.

Followup to why you should switch to Nobara Linux. Also, some scripts I've compiled for distro hopping the fedora flavors.

Thank you for the feedback. SyncThingy is awesome. I can't believe I didn't know about it.

Wtf are people so upset about?

Yes Syncthingy was one of the last things I needed to find before switching to Kinoite.

...Before QGis and Rstudio which I run in a Fedora39 Distrobox including the iucar/cran COPR and R-CoprManager
