Linux

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.

Asahi is really putting in the work to make macbooks attractive linux machines. I'd love to switch back to apple hardware when this OS is polished.

I've got one beside me~! Asahi's work is breathtaking. But Apple's BS is worse. Going frame.work next time

The new amd frame.work stuff looks really cool too, definitely a contender.
