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.

Not sure if anybody on here is actually looking for one, but I went ahead and made a community for Tuxedo OS. The community is for the distro and not the computers (bc I only use the distro) but given that there is no tuxeo computers community rn its fine if you post stuff for the computers.

I believe if you put an exclamation mark in front of that, it should create a direct link

You need to put a ! in front of the community name for it to become a link
