Linux

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.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/KyADkmRVe0U

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

This is the same guy who spread all the FUD about Red Hat going "closed source". No surprise he put Fedora in the devil tier. Kind of ironic given he makes videos about Windows.

Yes, that is rather ironic.

So Ubuntu is garbage because "firefox is a snap lol" but Kubuntu is great for beginners?

Trolling for YouTube views, smh
