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’m actually kinda suspicious any Linux user would actually want a single click default.
I don't know how requiring clocking twice instead of once is good
Avoids misclicks from opening stuff by mistake just for that alone is worth it to me.
I meant misclicks like clicking by mistake, like you clicked the item while trying to click something else or simply clicking by mistake the physical button of the mouse... Maybe uncommon.... true but when it happens that a folder or full app opens is annoying.
Oh, NixOS can't open anything anyway
