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’ve been enjoying nebula. Def worth $6.50 a month imo but I understand it’s not for everyone.
I like and use nebula too, but it isn't really a community, I don't think it has any way at all for users to communicate, no comments no profiles etc etc
How much content is there and what type of content?
It was created by youtubers to try and gain independence from youtube, it's ~~cooperatively~~ owned by the creators. It is mostly the same as those creators youtube content but with no ads and less ad friendly parts added in, occasionally a creator will put out some passion project that wouldn't work on an ad supported platform. It skews edutainment and video essay type stuff, contrapoints, strange parts, tom scott, philosophy tube and Not Just Bikes are a few that are involved. Quite a lot of content overall but most of it available on youtube.
I don’t know if you meant Joe Scott, or if Tom Scott is someone, but Joe Scott is one of my favorites.
No actually I'm talking about Tom Sott, the variety reporter style content and a signature red shirt. Just checked out Joe scott he seems pretty cool
Okies. Thanks.
