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.

Try saying: "I'm a (the name of the project)" out loud, and let me know how that sounds.

Get your head out of the gutter. There is a difference between file and philia, the former being something managed by this program and the latter being Greek for "love". Further, the phil- prefix/suffix is used in many words which don't mean what you seem to associate it with. Take philosophy for example—the love of wisdom.
