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.

I used to have a bunch of cool little extensions (and a few big ones, like dash to dock), but upgrading to a new version is always a removed. Plugins stop working and then a process starts where you're looking for updates if or when they'll be updated, if alternatives exists, etc. The system never feels the same to me.
