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.

That’s a very strict interpretation of the community rules. My interpretation is anything Linux-related, which reads Linix-based distro related, i.e. software that runs on linux operating systems. Kernel discussions are niche enough that you should start a new community called linuxkernel imo.

I think it is lax: I consider coreutils, busybox, binutils, c compilers, posix, even new distros and package manager and package format and desktop environment that crop up every day are still Linux-related.

software that runs on linux operating systems

There are so much...

Even discord app new versions should be announced here :)?

Oops, that won't exist. (People here like customizing their desktop and share their neofetch rather than talking about the kernel. I'm trying to find gems in this limestone community.)
