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.

Gonna install CachyOS tomorrow.
I know I'm late but ...
spoiler
It took me a while to backup all my game saves and memes from Windows 10 because Proton Drive limits you to 2GB unless you pay and if you don't pay your subscription they delete your email address. Could've gone with another provider but I was due for a spring cleaning anyway.I was also trying to get through my Itch library to save me the hassle of figuring out how to work Lutris but then the Steam Next Fest came and I gave up on clearing my backlog since I have a hard deadline of the next Steam Hardware Survey.
Perhaps a bit unconventional, but CloudFlare R2 gives 10GB of free storage accessible as S3 with
rclone.I know I have other options, Google Drive for example, I just didn't want to use anything new so I did things the hard way.
