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.

As someone who wants to switch to Linux, what are some decent Linux-only companies you would recommend?
AMD GPU over Nvidia. Intel wifi over pretty much anything else
In that case, I'm fucked. Lol. I have a Nvidia GPU because I do a lot of gaming, and in preparation for switching to Linux I was going to buy an AMD GPU with my tax refund and then
