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.

Running Wayland/kde on endeavourOS here. It has gotten so much better in the last couple of updates. I used to have stutters and just random plasmashell carshes. Those are gone now. Only major annoyance I still have now is some apps are still blurry, which is not Wayland's fault of course, and sddm when I wake the machine from suspend always turns into a black screen with a warning that the session is locked and I need to unlock it with ctrl-alt-F and run loginctl-unlock-session 9 (or some random number). Id do that and it unlocks. It's so weird, and not a big deal, but kind of annoying.
