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 got a minimal setup with pihole and nextcloud. I was wondering what else I could do. Share your ideas🙂

Welcome to the Linux community!

Thanks. Finally after Mint didn't recognise my network adaptor I tried Manjaro (everything worked great, but I don't think I'm ready for Arch) so ended up on Pop_OS .... everything works so I'm going to stick with this for now.

My choice as well. I had some weirdness with Steam at first, but was able to get that sorted.

Good to hear, I've not had any issues so far. The only "niggle" I've had is when pairing my Bluetooth devices I've needed to turn Bluetooth on and off for each pairing bit once done they've reconnected fine.
