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.

God damn man I wish Framework did the same coreboot open-source firmware...
They do have open-source firmware though. Not sure if all of it is but at the very least released:
And it looks like they are looking at coreboot, they have made attempts to port it (unsuccessfully) and given unlocked laptops to people in the coreboot community - though it seems like this is not a trivial task to do: https://community.frame.work/t/responded-coreboot-on-the-framework-laptop/791
This is awesome
