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.

You can easily add them by following the instructions on their site.

On immutable fedora it can be done via

curl -o - https://repository.mullvad.net/rpm/stable/mullvad.repo | sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/mullvad.repo

rpm-ostree uninstall mullvad-vpn --install mullvad-vpn

# after reboot, if not working

Nice. I accidentally discovered that mullvads wireguard app somehow magically bypasses some captive portals. Yay free internet!
