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 never left. The problem before was access was limited to one person who went AWOL. Now the organization has redundancy and the crew of maintainers are motivated, dedicated, and hard working.
This crisis was exactly what Solus needed to gain lasting power.
Stable. Rolling. Independent. That's what I want and Solus has been one of the few that really does this.
It is indeed a great distro. I can totally see myself going back to Solus if Fedora starts going downhill.
