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.

Anything is better than Mac... I hate how every time I try to push the green circle in the top left it now goes into full screen mode (if you don't hold option every single time). Who the fuck wants full screen mode?

That one feature is honestly enough to use anything else. It didn't used to be this way... But Apple has been screwing up their products for over a decade now.

Can you change these colored circles to symbols? Red/green are horrible, I can mostly not differetiate them

Why don’t you just use key commands?

You're right, a keyboard-driven tiling wm does seem like a better idea.

Most OSs have an app for it, if it’s not already built in.
