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.

Wondering what these top 5 apps were, hit the link
Wtf YouTube commercial.
Go to hell.
You should do better. And I should read links before I try to access them.
Having read other comments, I don't know or recognize any of the software listed.
You sold me on NOT checking the video out.
Use AdBlocker my mono chromosomal friend.
What do you recommend? I'm using ublock.
I prefer to use Piped links but custom APIs don't work reliably anymore due to some YouTube side A/B bot check changes so I had to use a YouTube link instead. I expected the bot to create a Piped link in the comment for those who want it but it didn't do it for some reason.
use an Invidious link (Piped doesn’t share thumbnails) and put both the Youtube and Piped links in the body
Interesting idea
These videos wouldn't exist without YouTube commercials.
Exactly, then it could have just been a text list on a webpage and we'd all be better off.
It wouldn't have been anything, because it wouldn't have been worth the creator's time to make.
Damn I forgot no content existed online and could be profitable before YouTube came along and saved us all from the dark ages.
It did exist. And still does. But it was never profitable. Especially not small scale.
Only because Google is become a blight on human progression.
There are better ways to make things profitable than wasting people's time.
Yeah you can pay for YouTube Premium 🤷
