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.

Nothing, but my biggest gripe is with the fucking file explorers. All of them are super inferior compared to win10 sadly
What are your favorite features of the Windows 10 file manager? Listing what you miss from other operating systems can help the Linux ecosystem to improve.
Very old comment, but my 2 cents: sorting by extension instead of MIME type. I don't want my jpegs, gifs and pngs mixed up when I tell PCMan, Thunar or Dolphin to sort by type. It annoys me to no end that something Windows has had since at least 95, most distros' default file explorers don't.
