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 get this feeling, but with iOS. Oh, I want to save a picture I found on the internet and message it. It's incredibly unintuitive to me and I feel like a grandma, even though on any other platform it would be easy.
iOS is pretty unintuitive. There’s lots of hidden gestures you have to memorize to get around. I missed androids back button since it always worked, whereas in iOS every app implements it differently. Is there an X in the upper right? A Close in the upper left? Do I swipe down? Swipe left? Etc. even apples built in apps are not consistent.
