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.

best they can do for those, is to offer such filters

well I'm sure some people will find it useful, but in my experience global filters make a global mess of everything without doing much of anything to alleviate the problem. Lucky for people like me, many games already have better options, and in other applications it usually isn't much of a problem
