    Out of all the distros that I’ve tried, probably Manjaro. The distro itself is ok, I don’t like how kind of bloated the default installation is, but it’s not too bad.

    However what really pisses me off,among their numerous other controversies, was when they replaced perfectly functional open source apps with proprietary ones…twice. Though the former has since been reversed.

          Sure, do you go and read the source code for Firefox for every update tho? I used to be a big fan of FF back in the day, it’s my daily browser on my phone but I just really like Vivaldi for desktop 🤷‍♂️

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.
