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.

Folks like you are part of the problem but you're clearly way too far gone to realize it.

No, folks like you are the problem. Apathy is how we got here in the first place.

There's plenty of good open source software that is user friendly, like VLC. The problem is other open source software that isn't user-friendly and takes this whole "it's the user's fault" approach. Folks like you just jerk each other off about how smart open source users are and how dumb proprietary software users are and it's just so cringy.
