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've primarily used Arch for my workstations since around 2007, and sometimes Debian Sid. I recently switched all of my workstations to Fedora Silverblue however, and I've been very happy with this type of workflow; flatpaks for user apps, containers for my dev environments, and automated image-based core OS updates. I am convinced this is the future of Linux computing for most users.
