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.

as an i3wm user, I approve 😁
Lol, the first thing that went through my mind was "what feature can I add to i3 with this key?"
unfortunately it would probably just replace the context menu key. which I've already set it to keyboard layout switch. 😁 it's the best keybind I have. way faster than mod+space or alt+shift 😅
