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.

Is there a data recovery tool for Linux to recover a Minecraft world? (sopuli.xyz)

So I uninstalled Zenless Zone Zero yesterday via Wine, and it seems it just deleted every game, KDE configs, etc.

These weren't really an issue for me, but my old worlds have gone to waste too. Unfortunately, my drive is on ext4, and I haven't used Timeshift cause low storage space. Is there any chance for me to recover back some data?

Hmm this sounds like a great idea, although I was already planning to get a new nvme SSD, but good to know options like these exists.

If it's not a cheap knock off USB stick, then yea it's probably more than enough.

Make sure you get the flash drive from a reputable seller. Sites like amazon have lots of fakes that are actually a much lower capacity than they report.

Another option is a SSD and external enclosure.
