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 like that its configuration file is very very simple.
When was the last time you had to edit sudo configuration file ? Same goes for doas. It's has nothing going for, for the majority of desktop Linux users (from what I got as an answer)
A month ago or so to be able to use zramen without root password.
