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.

Never was terribly happy with the previous Tumbleweed wallpaper. It's background being so dark really clashed with the default light theme for KDE:

I guess, it looked better on GNOME:

But yeah, I'm hoping this rebranding means we'll see appropriately set light and dark default wallpapers...

So fancy.

And yes, stock gnome looked indeed a bit better but KDE :).
