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 just recently migrated from Linux Mint to Pop OS, do you have any tips/extensions on what I should do with my desktop?

😁 EndeavourOS was for me the least time consuming distro so far. Installing everything via yay without having to add repos to it paired with it’s rolling behavior is the reason I use it.

I'll give it a try! Thanks!

Been using EndeavourOS as my main driver for 2 years now, I'm putting in the time to learn NixOS and so far it's been solid, would recommend it for rolling release stability which is issue with Arch if you don't update regularly enough.
