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.

Great piece, impressive work; Fedora now ships widevine by default - and it's not working anymore. I have a recent Asahi install, netflix won't play (used to work at the time of this blog post).

For me it works fine, but I guess that might be because I use the flatpak version of Firefox.
