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.

Interesting, maybe it's because I wasn't in the community yet when Gnome 2 was a thing but I always disliked Gnome 3 and love Gnome 40. The changes aren't even that big but I simply wasn't able to adopt to the Gnome 3 workflow and with 40 it clicked immediately.
Oh I definitely prefer 40+. And I think the changes are actually fairly big; not the basic idea of the workflow, but the way it's implemented has definitely gotten better.
