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.

Is this being downvoted because of a YouTube link?

While I didn’t downvote, it’s a really low effort post and the OP could at least summarize some of the salient points. The title also sucks (of the video, but still).

I am kind of not a fan of posts that are just a 20 minute video.

Makes sense. Thanks for explaining

really low effort post

And you think 99% of Lemmy isn't?
Literally the commies put more effort in their shitposts than most of the posts on this platform.
All the real content is in the comments, not the posts.
