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.

CardDAV in the built in contacts app without installing Evolution, just to configure functionality that is there without Evolution. People have been begging for years, and submitted unaccepted code, but Gnome devs are going to Gnome dev.

evolution-data-server is light enough, you don't need full Evolution.

honestly I'd just want a DE that isn't bugged and has all the basic functionalities. So far I couldn't even find one.
