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.

Honestly I think it will be a flop.
Oh boy
All will depend on the pricing. But it will be hard to go against the big three.
Head's up, this post is 2 years old. It was referencing the Steam Deck, which is actually successful
Yes lol, realised it right after I pressed send...
I've never been more happy that someone was wrong, sorry it had to be you
I’m happy it was me too, I love my steam deck!
I want it to succeed, but it probably won't.
We were so wrong, yay!
