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.

@zarkanian When posting videos try to put a descriptive title or a summary with your thoughts in the body. Not only it opens up discussions about the topic, it always make me more likely to check the content. It's not in the rules but i think is nice etiquette.
Especially those of us who prefer to read over watching videos.
It should actually be a rule to put some text in a text based platform.
Yup although the creator claims to not want to post clickbait, one of the main issues of clickbait is a title that tells you in no way what the video is about, but does sound controversial enough so you want to know the content. And this video clearly manages to hit those goals. Just like the goal to not really talk about the topic for the first 2 minutes. It really just came down to "take things slow, don't move on to the next thing before your understand the thing you are learning now".
99% of YouTube nowadays is clickbait and AI generated sewage. Along with plenty of the rest of the net. Before it was AI it was done with bots and scripts; it’s infesting everywhere.Everything decent has to get ruined by bottom-feeders.
