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 use Floorp as my main browser! I like it, it's very customisable and kind of weirdly Japanese lol
How so?
Assuming you mean the "weirdly Japanese" part - it's hard to say exactly, but it's made by a small team in Japan and just a kind of vaguely Japanese vibe to it somehow. Sorry I know that's not very helpful lol
Haha, I’ve tried it out but haven’t noticed any Japanese feelings to it. Would like to know if you later put words to it :)
