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 don't like to leave problems unsolved. Secondly, brave comes with default adblocker. What better FOSS chromium alternatives are there?
Ungoogled Chromium, Iridium, Vivaldi.
Note I don't use any of them (I use Firefox) but I know they exist.
Vivaldi is proprietary kek; and I use brave natively on debian, works nice for me
Ungoogled Chromium, Chromium and Brave are not verified on flathub. I already have regular Chromium, so I can't install the ungoogled fork as they conflict with each other.
