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.

Hi @Limonene@lemmy.world! It's so hard to grasp as a casual user the actual benefits from file systems. I use ext4 on all my devices.
Could you point me to the required feature a file system needs to have in order to recover files after removing it with
rm -rf?I heard there are tools for my current file system which could help me out; But is there some file system with a rm-cache (until the disk is powered off or the cache is full).
Unix Permission is a must.
Would appreciate some general hints (I do replicate my personal important files).
