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 really can't stand Linux Cast's style and don't get why he is on this and not Brodie Robertson.
Linux cast is just rambling most of the time, having a hard time getting to the point, while Brodie has some wit and humor. I also don't like his clickbait video titles and how every second video feels like it's about tiling WMs (we get it: tiling WMs are cool).
I'm aware that this might just be an involuntary anti-fat bias speaking, though.
I have the opposite opinion lol I hate how Brodie posts every damn day and spamming my subscriptions, plus I could probably read an article for 2 mins instead of watching his 10-15min video. I prefer Linux Cast much more
