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.

Personally, my only wish for Bazzite is a Cosmic version 👼 I tried it out recently and it seems fairly impressive
I've recently dove back into Linux and my last try was on Mint. After a few issues I went back to Windows. With the recent Microsoft news I wasn't happy using a system that could start spying on me.
It's been close to a month and aside from some specific game issues likely due to running a nivida GPU I've been enjoying my time so far.
Copy paste did take a while to get used to. Also the default screenshot tool doesn't automatically put the snip on the clipboard.
My main focus is gaming so this has been a solid operating system to use.
Always good to try out a few distros before settling in for the long run. As much as I love Mint, there are always cases where one distro has issues with your hardware where another doesn't.
Which part, the highlight-middle click part or something else?
In Mint? You've made me realize that would be convenient for me so I looked into it, I believe copying straight to clipboard is a default keyboard shortcut option I didn't know about.
Sometimes ctrl c / v doesn't work and it's a combination of ctrl, super and C.
Que confused "what's the super key"
Turns out that's what the windows key on my keyboard is called. So far only when I was messing with the terminal.
The screenshot tool in Brazzite. I think it's called spectre.
Ctrl C doesn't work in the terminal because that's how you terminate programs. You need to use Ctrl shift c, control shift v etc.
