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.

Off-topic: SQUEEKboard?!?? I need an excuse to use this 🙀
(Lil bit of backstory: I squeek sometimes. It's a mouse thing 🐭 ^.^ )
people r downvoting u but i think this is cute. squeek away!
Thankies :3 It's definitely cute ;P
I mostly subscribe to less fun-hating sorts of places so I didn't think anything of cuting a lil tiny bit 🤷 I guess we've gotta all be sooooper cereal around here or people get upset for reasons 😅 🥣 I'll just assume it's because all of those people are techbros who've been bitten by mice and can't even bring themselves to talk about it.
