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’ve used Plasma for a week or so before rebasing back to Silverblue last year.

I tried to keep it natural and not force an alien workflow into KDE too much, but I couldn’t really go back to the classic paradigm.

It was nice to give Plasma a look as it’s a great DE. But in the end I figured I prefer the gnome workflow, so it makes little sense to use another DE for me.
