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.

Glad.im not alone in this.
I use Gnome on the laptop and KDE on the gaming computer.
But I also dock the laptop, and gnomes workflow is still amazingly intuitive with keyboard and mouse.
It also handles HiDPI better than anything else I've used even windows and Mac. Truly remarkable.
But I use KDE for gaming because I want vrr and can use HDR.
