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 would swap only with Libreoffice

This is just a matter of personal preference, but I can't stand libreoffice UI. It has more features but I don't open office documents much, mostly just some basic spreadsheets, so I can get away with using a document editor with less feature but easier to the eye.

Damn. Even the website documenting their design is ugly as sin.
