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.

Read through the article. Well... words were said sure. Were they well written words? I'd argue not. I get the sentiment, use what works for you. This article isn't informative, it just calls the reader a fuckface among a slurry of other lame insults. If it was supposed to be funny, the humor isn't my brand.
I like using arch, and I like using and testing out what's new.
Stable doesn't mean old, and it doesn't mean better or worse. Stable is stating that it has been tested, arguably thoroughly tested.
This article did nothing but waste the readers time. Nothing was gained from this.
I think a boomer wrote the article.
