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.

Very excited to try it out once fedora ships it. Gnome may not add the most stuff every update but by god it is the smoothest desktop on linux
Maybe on 40 with a bit of luck
I don't think there's luck to it, F40 would be delayed if GNOME wasn't ready.
It's already on the testing build: https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/gnome-shell/gnome-shell/fedora-40-updates-testing.html
