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.

I think it is one of the more interesting recent distro's. Gaming set up out of the box. it has one of the easier zfs on root install options. Has plasma 6 which a lot of "major" distro's do not have in their stable release yet.
I tried to use it on my laptop but i have a piece of hardware catchy doesn't like. Dev's were helpful when i was trying to get it to work, but we didn't figure it out then. I now know what was causing the problem, so maybe i'll give it another try.
ZFS was a big selling point for me. I have yet to actually learn how to use it though. I'm still shocked at how many distros ship Plasma 6. It makes Debian kind of useless to me now. What issue were you having? Someone having the same issue might see this and find the solution.
