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'm learning about i3 and xfce on arch (my daily driver). I'm not linux expert, but I've been really enjoying figuring things out after switching from ubuntu to arch. This weekend I'm getting the icons for network manager applet and clipman working on the whisker panel, and then removing the i3bar.

Well, at least that's rhe goal. I don't have much free time, so tbis will mkst likely be a month project, not a weekend. :P
