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've had a pretty poor experience with it myself, so I wanna see what the Linux community thinks about this.

For me: totally. I need to use windows for work. With WSL, I can use all the tools I need via the Debian box underneath. All I use windows for are the communication apps my colleagues use.

Apart from work: nope. Full time Linux kinda guy

Teams and outlook have both pretty good third party flatpaks.

From what I gather teams-for-linux still uses the web version doesn't it? Would that not be subject to all the same problems?

From what I hear the only thing that doesn't work is reaction emojis in meetings.

Best thing available on windows, still suffers from running on windows, but inside is a pretty usable Linux distro
