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.

While i see the appeal of creating very specific communities i don't think its a good idea.

The userbase of lemmy is currently to small to warrant a community for evry little thing.

Currently i think its better to use bigger communities like /c/linux and make more specialized communities like /c/hyprland when the ammount of posts about a certain thing inceases.
