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.

What, how???
I've got Ubuntu on my 2015 MacBook that worked out of the box except dedicated/integrated graphics switcher and the webcam. I also installed Windows which Apple puts out official drivers for. It's just a computer, you can plug in a USB drive and install other operating systems just the same as any other laptop.
It's an older Intel macbook, those are just like most Windows laptops.
If it was one of the newer macbook M's, it would've been quite difficult at least.

You should get the Pantheon desktop environment for a more Mac like experience.
