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.

Half of the people talking shit are also Linux devs.

Got anything to back that up? I highly doubt the people here that were circlejerking about hating devs and even saying it's good if they suffer mentally from abuse they receive are devs themselves.

That's the kind of brain-dead childishness, immaturity, and lack of empathy that I'd expect from 15 year olds trying to act edgy in front of their mates.
