Upstream images vs bazzite: https://github.com/ublue-os/countme/blob/main/growth_upstream_with_bazzite.svg
My prediction: bazzite may have more installs than Fedora KDE by the end of the year.

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.

Yeah, the problem might be that you're doing it. For me, it would have been on me to fix it.
You think I should tell a You think I should tell a 6 year old kid to fix a broken Linux system? I'm sorry this has turned from discussion into bullshit.
6yo? Maybe not, although they probably could. My point was they will learn if they have to. 6yos are capable of far more than people give them credit for. They just need an incentive. They probably won't understand the system, but they can probably fix simple issues, which is also probably the only issues they'd create. They probably won't be using the terminal. At least by 10 they're capable of it.
The problem of the convo is that the other commenter talked without knowing the kid age, i agree that it's unrealistic to make a 6 years old kid fix any system at all, thought i can see a 11 years old learning that
