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.

Hey everyone, after two weeks of work, I'm happy to share Lemoa with you - a Gtk client for the Lemmyverse. You can install it via Flathub, or if you don't use Flatpak you can build it yourself - the instructions can be found in the README. Please keep in mind that the project is still in beta, if you come across bugs please feel free to open an issue at the GitHub repo.

Very cool, but please don't be dissuade by a potential deluge of bug reports/issues.

A native linux client would really be great after all!

No worries, I'm used to that from other projects I'm working on :)
