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.

"There's also ongoing work within the GNOME camp around VRR, enabling HDR on the desktop, etc. "

Right there. Right in the article dog. You think desktops dont render or something? And even without that you think they could have absolutely no valuable input being there?

All I gotta say is I only see one moron in this comment section and it ain't the root comment
